I can only think he was being sarcastic with the hat remark g
My Wife put me straight about his credentials.
Yes, I don't doubt his credentials either!
It just seemed a little incongruous to say the least.
Why was he there? He's an explorer known especially for his polar
expeditions. So he knows what it's like to guard against the cold.
Well yeah, OK as far as it goes but it's not even as if he's an
expert in keeping warming in a domestic British setting.
It's just the association that people will have seeing him there
talking about the coming winter and making the connection that it's
going to be an 'arctic' winter. More sensationalism, in other words.
