Re: What will you be taking out with you this SUMMER

Thanks for the tip - I didn't know that you could use malt vinegar on stings. I will be sure to give it a try.

Re: My New BOL/Allotment Diary

I have been reading this post from the beginning with interest. Thanks for keeping us updated and it's alsways good to have a thread with lots of pictures. If I'm fortunate enough to get an allotment any time soon then I will be doing similar things.

Re: What preps are you doing this week? part 2.

Thanks. That looks very useful. For me, its very hard to get muscle and strength together, so i am only doing the pull up bar once a week as part of the back routine and can't lift my weight for one rep as of yet, so I am slowly bringing myself up to scratch bit by bit and eventually will be there....

Re: What preps are you doing this week? part 2.

Equipment: 1 X pedals only elliptical, 1X set of adjustable dumbbells, 1X weight bench (foldable), 1X resistance band, 1x pull up bar. I see you have a pull up bar...

Re: "best" 4x4 off and on road

I don't think they do any wind-up ones but most of them are powered by a single AA battery. I've had mine for 4 years now a...
