Shandon Par Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 I have a few Hunter liners - fleecy ones, wooly ones, and cold feet is never an issue. A lack of grip may be more gin-related. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tamthebam Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 Maine Road, Manchester was once called Dog Kennel Lane. It was renamed by Temperance campaigners after the US State of Maine passed a law prohibiting alcohol in 1851. It's a shame they changed the name- imagine: "Colin Bell and Francis Lee used to delight the crowds at Dog Kennel Lane"... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, if there is no arrow, the side the hose comes out the pump on the icon is the side your tank is on. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
