OT: What do you use yours for? [was maplin thermometer ]

[Andy Champ]

After that I just have to ask - is your wife hot? :P

Unfortunately more luke warm than hot :-(

[tony sayer]

Sounds like "married" for some years;-(..

[Dave Liquorice]

Were you point at the right bits?

[David in Normandy]

Is it that obvious? "hot in bed" nowadays refers to the electric blanket or hot water bottle.

Interestingly the Mrs has an electric blanket on her side of the bed but I don't. Using the wonderful Maplins thermometer I measured the temperature under the sheets last night before getting in. My side was a mere 9 C but her side was a toasty 30 C.

My wife tells me that that's your fault Dave.

[David in Normandy]

Oh! I'm surprised your wife told you about that! She always said it would be our secret ;-)

[tony sayer]

Jeezz ..shes almost on fire;)..

[David in Normandy]

The electric blanket was from Aldi - so there's time yet!

[Si]

Fsck!!! Pass the screen cleaner!

[Andy Hall]

To buy this week's special offer - the fire extinguisher?

Make sure that you pick the red cylinder. The green ones are the marrows......

[David in Normandy]

The Mrs would be worried if I left a fire cylinder at the side of the bed! She would probably be even more worried if I left a marrow there.

[Andy Hall]

I thought that anything goes in France....

like the Gallic shrug of the lady in the pet shop......

But if he gets in the right hand seat of an aircraft, it makes him a co-pilot.

Well, this unit is supposedly calibrated for 0.95 surface emissivity, so I would assume applying some material in the list marked as 0.95 to the surface of the target object would suffice. Electrical insulating tape is listed as 0.97
