Not round here. Someone keeps chucking handfuls of polystyrene past the window, but the carpet is still mostly green.

It might be cool out there (-3, I think), cannot see any frost and it is the brightest, sunniest day you could wish. Grass is *green*! :-)

Given the massively powerful LiIon batteries we have now, some sort of heated undergarments would be very practical - escpecially for people with outside non physical jobs (guards, traffic wardens, that sort of thing).

You can get heated motorcycle clothing. A friend with an Ariel Atom has some.

coat & lined trousers, connect to upto 6v after ensuring the wire won't get too hot. 20w should keep you toasty,
Batteries. (At least the off-the-shelf ones do, I assume his DIY one would too.)

I'm a bit sceptical that the maplin one would be very effective running on just
6 AAs. Specs sounds a little odd too up to 45C and up to 2 hours.So is that 2 hours at 45C I think not probbly about 10mins at 45C and 2 hours if run at 25C. I've heard water skying jackets and snow sky jackets might be a better bet.

Of course if you have yourself, hostess, and six guests in various different outfits, getting them all into heated clothing might take a while and on the whole I think an electric heater would be cheaper and easier :-)

No, just a general consensus that people who use patio heaters are tossers
