Spring outfit
Following on from the Lidl thread,
here is my new spring outfit. New black windproof vest from Lidl Fleece-lined top from Decathlon (don't know the name, but it is very warm). Black. Light fleece from Decatlon. Black. (7 quid, recommend them to anybody, good length for cycling and they pack down small) Parrot windshell. Black. New Nike cycling shorts - black. Buff - you guessed it. I did get some bright front lights and have two Cateye rears though! |

Greetings,
I don't know how you can wear all that at once; my all year round wardrobe are bib shorts and a long sleeved summer Fox top for the 15 mile each way commute to work. The only thing that changes from winter to summer is whether I add an Ozzo windproof and the socks go from light to heavy coolmax. I guess it must be my added insulation and thick northern blood (blood group, gravy!). T.T.F.N.

Spring has definitely arrived! a How nice for you southerners. Here, spring remains merely a concept. Also, CH boiler keeled over during weekend. I'm working in scarf, woolly hat and coat, clutching large mug of tea frequently to keep fingers from frostbite. -- Joe * If I cannot be free I'll be cheap |

Southerner is of course a relative concept; as another example of one, when I lived in Newcastle there was a general agreement that a Cockney was anybody from south of the Tyne; beginning in Gateshead. Anyway, according to my thermometer where I'm sat it's 12 deg C, the external temp is 7 deg C, and if that's spring I want my money back, it's broken already. Dundee, I notice, is a whole ONE DEGREE warmer, you lucky people. -- Joe * If I cannot be free I'll be cheap |

Dundee, I notice, is a whole ONE DEGREE warmer, you lucky people. Depends where in Dundee: there's enough elevation within the town for the lapse rate to get rid of that. Up at Ninewells it's basically the inside of a cloud, so if that's luck I want *my* money back! :-( Pete. -- Peter Clinch Medical Physics IT Officer Tel 44 1382 660111 ext. 33637 Univ. of Dundee, Ninewells Hospital Fax 44 1382 640177 Dundee DD1 9SY Scotland UK net http://www.dundee.ac.uk/~pjclinch/ |
