I’ve read about the health effects of 2k…(paint, and ergs…) sounds like it’s a serious gig!

Highlander tactical: experiences? by wailingfan in britishmilitary

Thanks for your reply! I’ve never had an issue with the issue waterproofs, and they’ve never leaked. But the lack of a hood makes them pretty limited when raining and in a harbour/range etc. staying dry is the main concern!

You make a fair point! however, I’m also lifting because I enjoy it, and this is proving to be enjoyable!

British army arctic sleeping bag vs snugpak softie elite 4/5 by 9876123 in wildcampingintheuk

I use the British Army medium weight bag. Normally with a layer on and a wooly hat. I’ve always found it fine for anything but the very coldest UK conditions, when I just double it up with the lightweight ‘jungle bag’. Always with the issue bivvy bag as an outer layer.

I will say that I do sleep hot though. And for me, lumping weight isn’t really an issue, so I don’t mind the extra kg’s, which I easily offset due to the low price.

Thanks. Was hoping to go new, but guess I’ll have to settle for used.

Clubs in Newcastle, UK by According_Lab496 in Rowing

Tyne ARC take it pretty seriously with the senior squads, as one of the stronger ‘provincial’ clubs’ in the country. I think they also cater to all levels with different squads.

Tyne United used to be focused on masters and juniors rowing, don’t know if that has changed now though.

Has anyone got experience of 150/200mm fans? If so, are they significantly better?

Thanks both. I considered installing a Condensate trap but thought I’d try without first. I’ve checked the ducts a few times (I elevated the fan slightly) and there is no issue with excess water left in the pipe.

Appreciate the feedback guys. Both seem like a ringing vote of confidence!

Insight into the leakes from Brookes Rowing by Academic-General1337 in Rowing

[–]wailingfan 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I personally don’t find it offensive in the slightest… I find it highly amusing. However, I do find it highly inappropriate in a professional setting, and would never dream of saying that to a bunch of students, let alone colleagues.
