Re the Aldi boots Chris,let me know your size and I can look down here,and maybe meet you at Moore or somewhere on my next sojourn out to Johville (which MAY be tomorrow or Thursday)
Will need some proper boots along the lines of those Aldi ones,I just got back from Kingaroy now-the council has put me on full time as a dingo trapper-so will be flat out from now-you could call in here 2 moz or Thur,not far from top off range.I'll be camping out with the dingoes full time next week-some warm booties would be good.
Hilarious this morning at Aldi, it was more like that game you played in the 70s and 80s, "how many people can you fit in a Mini". Everyone was piled on top of each other, absolute chaos.

Yes, yes it was lol. But, it was quiet and no one was shoving or pushing. I called it the quiet riot. Because people where just rummaging around and making a huge mess. I did however find the neoprene face mask and touch screen enabled gloves. Went well actually.
+ 1 for the Freezer suit, anything else is second best. I used mine down to freezing point @ Duckadang, warm as toast. I bought mine back in the 90's (last century...) for flying in powered hang gliders. Freezer suits are also quite a bit tougher than ski gear.
They might not do long temps at minus 20 like your stuff, but i doubt i would want to be out at minus 20 anyway. For June, July and August at wiruna, it usually goes sub zero by few degrees, so for $40 they look like and feel like they will do the job fine. My usual problem is cold feet, literally, and the boots seem up to it.
Just got a couple of 'heat machine' insulated thermal socks delivered from the UK. 2.3 TOG rating - feels like a hot water bottle in your boots. I hate cold feet when observing!
