    My feet are like blocks of ice, despite having 2 pairs of socks on under my boots. Anyone any ideas on foot warmness :confused:

    I dont own an iron :D

    Are your socks and boots too tight....need to have loose layers on to let the warmth circulate...

    Spudly I have my heating on full....

    Me too. I dont think being outdoors for over 3 hours earlier helped :rolleyes:

    Just spent the last half hour working out the timer, so it comes on just before we get up ;)
    Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:

    Erm, just normal sock and boot tightness :confused::o

    I think if I could work out how to keep my feet warm, I'd be much happier :D
