On the really cold days, thermals are the answer, you do not need many layers then. You may look a Pr!ck in the locker room when changing, but you'll be the warmest outside. Oh, btw, don't forget to take them off before you go to the bar, or you'll blow your thermostat!! :).

I just have a base layer, roll neck jumper, maybe a polo shirt and a jumper on in the coldest conditions as I prefer layers to any one bulky item. I hate using my waterproof jacket. Always make sure you keep the head and hands warm too.

I have to be honest and say that living in Berkshire it is only once or twice a year I need as much as that and can normally get away with a base layer and a couple of jumpers

For the first time this year I got myself some thermals so far I have never been cold.

I resisted buying them as I thought thet were for old men, then I realised I am an old man.

I don't like too many layers on my arms (how the hell do you swing a club with three/four layers on?) and I don't bother with baselayers until it's down to -C. I'll also add two pairs of socks.

I also don't like woolen jumpers but my proquip jacket is warm enough above that. If its windy as well I might put a tee shirt on first.

head, hands and feet - keep them warm and you won't go far wrong.
