How long's your cord for the electric blanket then? And does it interfere with the 4 poster?
:thumbsup:


My 12v electric blanket has a cord about 2m long :P

That won't reach the power point back home, better get a generator.
If it's not wood and blued steel, it's not one of mine

Anyone else finding the weather mind at the moment? hasn't really felt like winter at the moment (not around here anyway) I'm still getting around in shorts and T-shirt for the most part, we are expecting snow later on in the week ( we will see what happens there) not convinced we will get any. Winter really hasn't happened here as yet :unknown:

All the snow we recently got has melted except for on the higher peaks. The local ski resorts are under pressure. A small amount of snow is forecast tomorrow but not a significant fall. El Nino was forecast this year and appears to be happening.
Browning BL-22 lever action...open sights
T3 Varmint .204 Ruger...Meopta Meostar 4-16X44
T3 Lite .30-06 Sprg...Aimpoint Hunter 1X red dot

Not good at all to hear mate, hopefully the snow will fall and get these businesses where they need to be. I did about the El Nino the other week, may well be the reason for the poor snow falls down that way and up here too. :unknown:

It does seem to go in cycles alright.

If this keeps up I'll have to take my bag to Canada.
