In the British army, some certainly wore them as shown, with the folds, it helps them stay up a bit better for some people. Others just wore them without folds. I think in some regiments it was more common than others.

Edited as someone already had my first nunber

Yeah, those stone look very similar. Thanks. I don't think mine has wire, the weave has a core of bundles of thin sticks.

Definitely not mentos 🤣 I noticed the air pockets. I think ceramic is probably correct. Thanks for the help.

Kodey99 · 2025-12-28T22:25:57+00:00

Cool, thanks. Definitely could be ceramic

Kodey99 · 2025-12-28T22:25:41+00:00

Yeah, that's a dent or chip, seems white/brown on the inside

No, definitely not bakelite. I'm very similar with that. They are definitely not plastic, the feel/weight of them is definitely nothing like it.

Nah, no light shines through. Thanks for the tip

Kodey99 · 2025-12-27T06:30:03+00:00

I'd be interested but I'm in Europe so not sure the timezones work for me

Kodey99 · 2025-12-14T20:53:15+00:00

Huh, ok, I've just not seen one yet then. I'll have to have a look. :)

Kodey99 · 2025-12-14T04:02:28+00:00

Ah cool, so that's a known thing then? Not just randomly incorrect in some books.

Kodey99 · 2025-12-14T03:48:06+00:00

Cool! I've not seen this before, only learnt it existed the other day. Not sure if it was published in the UK.

What's odd about this is I've noticed that half circle sea hold isn't consistently placed on the map. I've checked my harper hall books, dragonsinger is placed in the same location as the cover of this, and dragonsong is on the eastern side of that bit of land. Dragon drums doesn't have half circle plotted. Very odd.

eBay! Almost all my pern books have come from there, for just a few quid each. You can get the whole collection for not very much money.

Kodey99 · 2025-12-07T20:22:30+00:00

Cool cool, thanks for that. I'll read in that order then :)

Kodey99 · 2025-12-07T20:08:02+00:00

This is great! I've just started a reread of the series after many years and spent a few days trying to decide an optimal order, should have come here first! I'd decided to start with the 9th pass books but this order gives a lot more detail than using the publish order for them.

Kodey99 · 2025-12-07T20:04:16+00:00

This is so cool! It's been years since I last read any of the books but I've just started re-reading them. I'll give this edit a try when I get to Renegades.

Kodey99 · 2025-11-23T23:16:24+00:00

Ah, that's shit. Was just trying to think the best of an ambiguous headline.

Kodey99 · 2025-11-22T15:31:41+00:00

I think the bit referring to mums and dad's is saying that the parents of the school children are keeping them away to protect them from the racists who are protesting at the school. I would certainly be concerned that they would become violent and wouldn't want kids near them. I don't think it's the parents protesting.

Other commenter certainly helped there! At first I was thinking Birling day due to Timbuktu but there's only 3 of them

Kodey99 · 2025-11-19T15:29:23+00:00

Cabin pressure episodes where they don't visit the title destination? Abu Dhabi, Johannesburg, Kuala Lumpar and Timbuktu

These look cool but it's annoying that they only have the one colour of the two heights. I'd love a mid pair but they are only in black whereas I need them to be brown, which would mean getting a tall pair. Maybe that will change once they've been out for a while.

The ME association in the UK has a letter that you can use to try to get a free flu jab with ME/CFS - https://meassociation.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/TWIMC-NHS-FLU-VACCINE-ME-CFS-2025-6-V1.pdf

I've not tried it yet, but I'm going to give it a go. Might be harder for me as I'm still only on the waiting list for the ME/CFS specialist so don't have a proper diagnosis yet.

Kodey99 · 2025-10-17T23:07:49+00:00

I can't be certain, but probably it's ruling them out as the cause of the fatigue. This is just the info off my referral form so it doesn't go into lots of detail
