All wrapped up for the night now in an old duvet, 13.5 tog should be grand at that, i dont care if it gets condensation, its a sure fire bet it will as long as it doesnt freeze inside the van.

First time I've put an oil filled rad in the van this year - we're only forecast -1 here in Bristol but I don't like having a stiff hosepipe in the morning ( :o ;D) like I did today!
