Can anyone recommend a good thermometer for taking temperature readings. I understand one should use a non digital Fahrenheit one but they all seem to be in Celsius and digital. Also the glass thermometers are difficult to read especially for us oldies.
Suggestions gratefully received.

I tracked mine with a farenheight, digital one, bought off the net. Probably eBay or amazon. I find the mercury ones impossible. If you are tracking your temps every day, you are looking for changes, so if you always use the same thermometer it should have the same degree of Inaccuracy. ( if any) all the time.
I use a BabyMad digital basal body temperature thermometer - it's intended for tracking fertility, so is designed to pick up small fluctuations in temperature. Seems to get good reviews online. It reads in Celsius, but to 2 decimal places, so quite precise.
I have a digital one that does both Fahrenheit and Celsius. Bought it from lloyds pharmacy. I can't read the non digital ones anymore.
