Ain't nobody got time for cold!
Updated | By tanstan fourie
So when I found out that Notties was going to have a starting temperature of two degrees – I popped into the closest store and bought myself some old-school long johns, thermal socks and some thermal long sleeve vests. I really don’t care how ‘old mannish’ I look – that is what I am wearing!
Wearing your thermals is a big decision to make before you leave the house because thermals plus jeans and shirt plus jacket plus scarf plus gloves is decidedly challenging when you have to quickly pop off for a wee.
If you think about it you have to take your gloves off otherwise you cannot quite grip the zipper. So the gloves is one layer. Then there is the zipper and the button – that’s the 2nd layer. Then your underpants – that’s the 3rd layer. And then your thermals – your 4th layer...
So if you’re in a rush for an Number One or a Number Two – thermals or long johns are your enemy! And if you have a prostrate problem you must be so challenged if you have to rush with only seconds to spare to make it to the loo knowing that YOU made the decision that morning to thermal or not to thermal.
Me – I don’t care – it’s just too cold. When it's cold my lips don't move so well and seemly simple words like M-Net come out as N-Met, Outsurance comes out ousrinse and East Coast Breakfast - East Coast BrrrrrrReakfast.
It's a no brainer, I’m going thermal! I can always put my undies in the wash, but poor diction never washes.
This is why you should always close your room door on tour!
