I had no intention of launching a political criticism. I was criticising uk clinicians who are trying to force me to take a medicine that is clinically unnecessary, unacceptably costly and socially abhorrent to me. Significantly regarding the OP - the supply chain is out of National control...

I have been fighting NOT to take Apixaban since before Covid. I’m not saying that my stance is right for anyone else - it’s very right for me. I don’t want to rely on anything that only has one supply line, is patented to a single company and is sourced where that supply is political. No way...

I’m still getting the blue version of an opening page (see above) when I open BcUK. It’s not a problem. I just tap refresh and Up comes the proper opening page (Green header above.) It’s just a change and I wondered why.

Is cynicism always pessimistic? I am a philosophical cynic. It’s been highly constructive to my thinking. (Check some of my posts - and I’ve been very restrained :lmao: ) I’m more cynical about conspiracy theories than about almost anything else. I just don’t think that governments could be...

I’m not sure about this. Yes, there may be small discrepancies day to day but over a four day period the dose will be totally accurate. If you are talking more generally than 300mg aspirin, by the time you’ve taken all the bits of a split pill you’ve got an accurate average dose. Blood...

The Kule range marketed by Go Outdoors is supposed to be 98% cotton. 1. They are pricy. 2. I haven’t fitted into their maximum girth (38)since I was seventeen. 3. Only seven pockets. My polycotton Caribou trousers have nine pockets, six of them zipped. The most recent ones cost me £35 two...

Hi Welcome.

Looking forward to it.

Totally agree. I’ve suggested to Eurohike that either they label the bag “The pegs enclosed are for demonstration only.” Or That they provide suitable pegs for the situations for which they advertise the tent. (No reply - totally ignored.) BOW DOWN TO THE ONE YOU SERVE! (Guess how long it is...

No one blinks. I’ve done it several times when I have a gig and there is no decent tent camping. How often have I seen those signs for camping showing a caravan and a tent (UK Standard road sign) only to be told to camp on a van pitch and had to hammer my pegs through the chippings under the...

I am fighting my GP to stay on Warfarin. It’s cheap, there are many European manufacturers as well as UK and many supply chains. Apixoban is more expensive (even when you include the more frequent warfarin blood tests) and less effective for relatively low risk people like me. But UK has...

Hi, Welcome. Can you get to the Summer Moot at the end of this month? It’s not exactly wild camping, more like a Bushcraft University in the most friendly of settings. There are so many there who are dyed in the canvas Bushcrafters and who are so willing to share knowledge. Well worth it if...

Hi Welcome.

Did you end up buying a spork? I’m just about to engrave another one for a grandson and did some checking while I was about it. The titanium “long spork” that you showed is 21.5cm The ones that I recommended are 20cm The LMF type sporks are 17cm. So the difference between my sporks is 3cm...

I suspect that you have not suffered a major rat infestation.

Indeed. One can’t help thinking that Noah missed an opportunity in the case of horse flies.

That’s new! That’s normal :) Just one click on [new posts] and everything is fine. iOS 26.5 I tend not to log out. Logging in from scratch is completely normal - thus far.

Thanks Tony. You are up to your neck in Summer Moot stuff you don’t need this. It’s not a priority issue. We can all get on the forum in a few clicks. It can wait till after you’ve unpacked at the end of the month.
