just bought a gelert 2/3 season sleeping bag at halfords for £9.99 :o):
i posted elsewhere that they have tents too, very much end of line at the mo but heck at that price i cant complain
pretty sure that it will keep me warm in this weather anyway

Tant, find the coldest part of the house (garage, pantry or whatever) and spend a night in there first.
I know it is not the great outdoors, but it will tell you if it can withstand ambient temperatures down to the levels that are claimed and if it doesn't you always have a warm bed to retire to without being stuck in the middle of knowhere freezing your do dah's off :o):
