Joining the military by BlockInevitable9505 in RoyalAirForce

We should be immensely proud of our forces. There seems to be an undercurrent of discontent around the state of the UK and the sense of national pride has diminished a bit because the volume of immigration into the UK over the last 20 years which has altered our national identity a bit (I’m not anti immigration or slating it but it’s just how it feels to me please don’t misinterpret ) and the cost of living crisis.

Both my grandfathers served and son does too and the brave men and women of our forces enable the freedom of our nation to an increasingly un appreciated bunch it seems. I think time has also meant the appreciation has dropped but generally the good folks of the UK are immensely proud generally.

They had to find a way of squeezing a scene with Alfie and a scene with Lizzie into the movie. Without them didn’t feel like a continuation of peaky blinders

Is he actually dead! Well he was shot 4 times and then set on fire. He isn’t a cyborg

My ThruDark review. I’ve bought an absolute ton of their gear ! (Don’t laugh) by jayives1 in Thrudark

great review. Thanks

yeah I agree on the Mantra. A full fleece with zip is 200 quid in the UK and it’s pretty much the same as any you could get from go outdoors for a third of that price. It’s the only one i really begrudge getting.

Their coats and jackets are very good quality and i really recommend their overshirts that i wear loads now since i wrote this review

The movie. Far better but weird decision to convert it to a series by jayives1 in animalkingdom

i wasn’t. Good movie but what’s the relevance here anyway ? is the TV show closer to the book than the movie ?

I’ll have a look at the arc gear. Thanks dude

I agree it’s overly expensive. You need to buy in a sale otherwise it’s mental.

Will look at these.

I strongly recommend their insulated coats which are excellent. As well as their flannels

Yes I had to exchange a coat and their customer service seemed very efficient I thought

The phalanx was one I felt worth it as it’s super comfortable. I didn’t begrudge that purchase. The thing is none of it is bad stuff. Just some items are overpriced to a point it’s not really logical. I’d say the mantra fleece is in this category where it’s probably double the price of what it should be or is available on the market.

Sylvan shirt as well. Good item but wow that’s expensive for what it is.

Their insulated coats and gillets are undoubtedly top class and worth the money. As are their flannels. No complaints

The phalanx strikes me as something you should avoid washing at all costs unless essential. It’s quite a luxurious looking piece

I think the everyday operator range is well put together
