And those small hyperactive flies that continually land on your skin, buzz off then return. Makes working in the garden less pleasant. I have started wearing those long-sleeved lightweight hoodies, popular with those who fish. Keep off the sunshine and the pesky flies.

It topped 38C here yesterday afternoon. Seems very early to get hot this year.

And you're wearing a hoodie.

For God's sake, man.

Have some self respect.

I think of them as workwear. I sadly don't own any camo shorts and even if I did they'd not suit me in the garden - or anywhere, tbh. I have reached an age where the sun is not my friend, these SPF50 (alleged) long-sleeved shirts keep the UV, flies, ants and mosquitoes at bay. They are very lightweight, not too sweaty and when I have finished I just throw them in the washing machine and they dry in no time.

Ideal for garden work. I haven't yet tried them for a trip to Makro although I'd probably feel overdressed there amongst my fellow countrymen who seem to prefer wifebeaters, cargo shorts and flipflops.

I have those hoodies too, mostly for water activities such as kayaking, fishing etc, or long periods at the beach.

I don't worship the sun, I get plenty of it without trying.

[NamPikToot]

Hoodies? are we talking about those wide brim hats with the cloak type thingey that drapes down your shoulders and leaves a gap for your eyes?

[dirk diggler]

[Mendip]

^ That looks OK.

Do they do them in 'international' sizes? Are they UV protective?

Do they do them in 'cammo'?

I stay out of the sun whenever possible but when working outside that is just impossible at times.

I have annual skin cancer checks but now I am taking more and more precautions after the follies of my youth.

My tik Tom pyjamas arrived today. Can't wait for all the sex I'm going to have.

Just type 'UV jacket men' into Lazada, the one above goes to 5XL. It say's they're UV protective but I don't have any means to measure that.

Camo - of course!

How do they do that, is it just a visual or is there some kind of machine wizardry involved?

[Mendip]

^ It's a visual but the doc has a magnifying glass.

He was trained in California so knows about Western skin and I think it a necessary precaution for an Englishman who has lived in the tropics for three decades. And with your Celtic skin... get checked!

I had a basal carcinoma excised a few years ago and have been careful... ish ever since.

[NamPikToot]

I've not seen workers wear them

Should have went to Specsavers then!

I just want to share the trauma and mental anguish that befell me this morning…. To share it will be a warning to others…


After drinking coffee this morning I got the rumble in my lower regions to tell me it’s toilet time.. I moved as quick as I could, knowing that a fart could set off a fatal reaction… Got myself on the throne just seconds before the world fell out of my arse…


Then a sudden moment of shock, realisation.. I had left my phone in the kitchen… For a next few minutes I sat alone, not knowing what to do, maybe try a whistle or break out into song as the smell of a swamp hit my nostrils… I could not call out for help, I was alone and confused…


I felt alone and frightened, just like Prince Andrew or an Arsenal fan..


I write this to warn others, keep your phone on your person at all times, don’t put it down for a second.. Don’t suffer the indignity thats blighted the start to my day..

[Bettyboo]

^ Thanks for sharing, I can only imagine the loneliness and fear of being a Gooner.

[NamPikToot]

I wanted some shin of beef and got 1.4kgs for £11, they had 1.2kgs of ribeye which i couldnt resist at £13 essentially half price. My moan is i have had to eat one of the 4 steaks for tea and will have to eat another tomorrow as i only wanted 2 to slice up and freeze for my chinese special curry mix (steak, chicken thigh, prawns and pork tenderloin).

[kingwilly]

Or go and do your business without phone.

[klong toey]

For feck sake I keep getting adverts pop up for men's incontinence pads I'm not that fecking even searching online for that type of product.

[NamPikToot]

I had you down as a prepper

[Bettyboo]

You don't have to be shy, KT - AI knows!

My moan of the day is: music, loud shite Thai music from the field next door since around midday, and being a Friday - I don't expect it to end early. I can't even see it, if it's a house a pickup full of drunk Somchais? &, I'm not going through the snake infested overgrowth to find out. I suspect I'll be sleeping with my ear plugs in tonight.

[NamPikToot]

You need a drone

[Bettyboo]

^ That is not a bad idea at all! Mmmmm, where's the wife's Shoppee account?

[NamPikToot]

Take advice from JPPR if you can rouse him from his old fashioned stupor in the bubble bath

[Bettyboo]

^ I haven't heard from him in years - has he changed his name; I don't know who anyone is, but like to think of you as Socal or Butterfly (our 2 best ever posters by the way; excluding that geezer who was hilarious, but only on here for about 6 months, very macho).

[NamPikToot]

has he changed his name;

Yes, there was a mod a couple of years ago who thought it was funny to piss around with posters nics, change PlanB to PlanK and JPPR to Stumpy

[klong toey]

I had you down as a prepper

Oh yes definitely we normally have plenty of cat food at least 3kg of pla ra
I think for safety sake I will brew 50 litres of banana beer for me.
And my internet search history is 2 storke motorbikes for sale especially Maico 490 at the moment I know it's scary but I don't need incontinence pads .
