I’ve been on a steady and constant diet of Opiate based pain medication for the last ten years. Then there’s the medication used to combat some of the groovy, and not so groovy, side effects of said Opiates, which have their own effects on my physiology.
The end result of these cascading side effects is I don’t feel much of anything anymore, especially the cold. It’s not uncommon for me to roll up to the flying field in shorts and T-Shirt and find the other members adorning all in onesies, bobble hats and scarves, seated in horseshoe formation around the 3Bar Propane heater in the club hut. Even in my car at this time of year the climate control is always turned to its lowest temp setting. If I was single I’d save a fortune on gas and electricity. (Un)Forunately I’m not, but my Wife is from LA and insists the central heating needs to be on in August.
I’ve been looking this morning for the best gloves and I think I’m going to go down this route
Doesn’t matter how thin your touch screen gloves are there not quite thin enough and have square finger tips. No good for trying to hit the shutter speed button when your shaking
Fingerless gloves (to work fiddly camera buttons etc.), thermal hat, thermal socks, waterproof walking boots, and a warm coat - the down-filled lightweight ones are brilliant.
What about a stytlus for touch screens…they say ALL touch screens operated by finger can be operated by a passive stylus…???.
Of course,…there are silk gloves as used by pro pilots…silk is warm.and they can be worn under thin gloves…and some of their gloves are very thin leather.
I’ve got a pair of sealskinz gloves with flip top finger and thumb really warm except for the tip of your finger and tip of thumb lol but the rest of your fingers and hands are toasty warm
i actually have an underactive thyroid so i get a medical exemption from that particular dealer. Honestly I was fine till i turned 40 then thing just started hammering me, developed a sesame allergy which really killed off my thyroid. Then raynaulds really started playing up.
DOH! I have had a Chrome lappy for sometime. Touch screen.
Just twigged that my phone stylus operates it (despite mentioning the cold weather get around for touch screen above)…
This age thing really does get to you!!!
its ok, my phone, the one i use for the screen is a samsung galaxy note 20, in otherwords that samsung that has a stylus as like its major selling point. And i never thought of that. I have packed a spongy type stylus in my drone bag though as its easer to grip in gloves and less likely to get dropped and lost. if it does they are much cheaper to replace.
