And now a question from my mother:

It’s cold out. Are you wearing your thermal vest and balaclava? If not, why not?

Not much research needed for this one. I’m not wearing a thermal vest per se, but I am wearing plenty of layers and wrapping up nice and warm. I don’t own a balaclava but I’m seriously tempted to get one, if only to frighten little old ladies (such as yourself) with.
