You can laugh but when we did our arctic warfare training in Norway we had to strip off in the sauna then go out and roll around in the snow starkers and rub the stuff all over.

Thanks for the spelling lesson Seaburn, I'd like to learn more about the "Humber keel"

if you google Humber keel Comrade, you will find the website for the humber keel and sloop preservation society. My OH is the current skipper.

as for the spelling lesson OH once beat me at scrabbble with adze and I have never forgiven him
