Crazy question perhaps, but I'm curious.. tell me,, as warmly dressed as you obviously were, did you feel cold?

I must be the only one on here that thinks you guys are crazy for loving the cold this much.
Suzy, you may find it hard to believe but for the whole night I only had a T-shirt on, and Jeans, and my slippers on my feet. That's all

It gets a bit hot in beanies, jackets, gloves, jumpers, boots, etc etc when sitting in my dining room at the computer to do Video Astronomy

I am only outside for about 2 minutes before I start (to plug cables in and turn everything on), and about 40 seconds when I have finished about 3am or 4am (Remove the camera and quickly cover the scope).
I bring the scope back inside the next day when it is warmer

But on club nights when I am up the Clubsite, yeah, I dress like an Eskimo too
The colder the weather the better the sky
