Jan. 7th, 2011 10:29 pmI've just dropped the kids off at Winter Camp, an annual camp for hundreds or maybe thousands of Scouts/Explorers held in Epping Forest.
Their leaders gave them lots of advice on how to keep warm, wearing layers etc.... and I think they took it to heart - I was asked to turn the heat in the car down as we were travelling there!
As they headed off for the meeting point at the start of the camp, they were all wearing two pairs of trousers (with waterproof trousers ready if the rain returned), thermal top, short and long sleeved T shirts, thin jumper, thick jumper/sweatshirt, coat and raincoat, plus hats and gloves, two pairs of socks and walking boots. Oh, and somewhere in the layers they had their scout shirts, because they were told they had to come in uniform.... (though how anyone will see anything other than their scarves I don't know!)
I'm not entirely sure how they were managing to walk with that much clothing on... however, I'm pretty sure that they won't come home complaining of cold!
