SC - Surviving Estrella War

[hawkstwr at omen.net.au]

Hi All,

I have not had to endure what I would consider very cold camping in 
the SCA, however if you can get hold of full size sheepskins I can 
recommend no better thing to put between you and whatever mattress 
you are using for insulating purposes.
I have used sheepskin over a 4" foam mattress with marvelous results, 
and can see no reason why it would not work as well over an airbed. 
I have found that the size used for car seat covers is good for a 
single under blanket.

On the humorous side a friend of mine once had a sheepskin sleeping 
bag made and found that they were unable to sleep with it closed up 
as it was too good at retaining heat, 
temp range was 5 - 10 degrees C.
