[Bearbonesnorm]

Nothing to do with you Dan, your end of the job was superb ... the postman gave up this morning and went home before he got anywhere near us

Multimat 'summit' XL foam mat, £20 down from about £40, in Blacks in Bristol and apparently Keswick, so I'd guess it's fairly common around the country. If anyone, aside from myself, uses foam mats.

Merino t's at £18/£25. Just got one and they are a thinner merino, don't know what weight, and expect it to be good for riding in:
