OK, but if this turns into one of those awful shopping mall channels I
will switch off.
Though rare in scrapyards, you could always go out and steal one but
Volvo car and truck drivers have the luxury of a heated pad embedded in
the seat cushions. In Birmingham there is an outfit called Fletcher's
that buys up excess car industry "waste" and every now and then they
have a few dozen in stock. Very thin polyester film and consuming about
2 amps they could be formed into leg warmers, something to fit around
the small of the back, even into an electric turban. The last lot cost
about 3 pounds per panel.
It's my knees that go first, I've taken to flying with a long scarf
wrapped round each, so geriatric. My next plane will need stowage for a
Zimmer frame at this rate.
