sorry for subsequent post, but i keep thinking of these things and forgetting to post...so now i've remembered...does anyone use one piece purpose made thermal jumpsuits for outdoor shooting in the winter? i remember almost buying one for fishing when i was a youngster, but never got round to it...was wondering if there are similar things for cold people with cameras.

best regards,

mark

Hi Mark - I can't be doing with them at all - I always wear salopettes and an appropriate jacket.

These are very good http://www.tackleuk.co.uk/prologic-max-4-thermo-armour-pro-salopettes-p-3157.html

Salopettes with a good jacket give you a lot more freedom of movement than all in one jumpsuits.

I had a conversation about these yesterday Andy. I have a pair of chest waders but the feet are no good and someone recommended these. I will definately consider them as I'm looking for something for Donna in January. Brrrrr :eek:

Thanks

haha cracked up...unfortunately tom my drysuit undersuit it all black and a bit tight...if i was sneaking though bushes with that on i think i might be arrested for being some kind of bush gimp :razz: :razz: :razz:

but i suppose i could wear it underneath stuff. good idea.

" arrested for being some kind of bush gimp" Isnt that only if you had the golf ball gag on?

Just carry a surf board too and you'll be fine :biggrin:
