Have you also binned the BIC biro's and gone back to a fountain pen or even a quill and inkwell?

No I love a bic biro, cheap as chips and flow like a dream, now what I don’t like are those bic-alike cheapy pens, the sort with the scratchy balls

"Derby's Bic" made me laugh - proper tea spurting all over the desk laugh - thank you!!

Forty years of fell running and I didn't know that! Still learning something every day...

Back to the original question: all 3 of my children are currently wearing Lidl waterproofs and thriving. I’m in a 10year Gore Tex and wet. The youngest’s set has been through 3 children and been recently re-Nikwaxed and is like new!

All well and good Felltrumpet but what we really want to know is whether or not they can zip them up themselves

Stereo 8? Essential for listening to 70s Folk.

The 2yo can, 4yo can’t be bothered, 7yo doesn’t want to wear it anyway. All would fail the kit check anyway as they don’t have taped seams.

Or maybe... actual real live music played on instruments right in front of your eyes :-O
