Underrated

No midge net. (Essex)
Not for long…..

With the increasingly wet ‘summers’ we’re all experiencing, there are hoards of the wee hoors descending further and further south below Hadrians Wall.

It’s only a matter of time…..
 
The £1 Dutch army surplus neck tube/scarf I bought 25 years ago - it's kept me warm on many a frosty morning not to mention helped keep Nordic winds at bay. It's wearing a bit thin now & is tearing next to the seam so last year I bought another - couldn't believe how much they've gone up, it cost me £8!!
 
First time I borrowed my wife's Volvo.

I did not realise it even had this 'feature'.

I had driven about a mile when I suddenly felt very warm in the groin.

Honestly.

Thought I had developed acute incontinence. :oops:

True tale.
You’re not alone.
Many moons ago a colleague bought a Volvo 345, white,

he drove it for years and then one day it wouldn’t start, battery was as dead as a maggot.
Since he was a nice guy and we were feeling charitable, we offered him a push start.
After a full lap of the car park, it became manifest that he had no idea how this basic life skill actually worked.
So I hopped into the driver seat. Two good shunts later, still no joy, no hint of a spark, and a dim red glow on the dash.
I carefully examined the dash, both the heated seats and the heated windscreen were on.
Once I switched them off, the car sparked up no problem.
He admitted that he had felt a bit warm now and again but didn’t like to mess with the switches once the car was working.

The midgeologists seem to think they’re fairly strongly restricted to acid soils, so Essex is probably safe.
 
Fold the piece twice, so it is a smaller square. Then, while it is folded, tear off the small central 'corner' piece so you have a 1cm little circle. Stick your finger through the resulting hole, wipe, and use the small 1 circle piece to clean under your nail!

That sounds like it would only work if you had a pretty firm turd. Any wetness/sticky ness would lead to a disaster!

Has anyone actually tried this?
