Lidl's

Well recently we have had contributors extolling the use of Lidl's garden knee pads to be used as fenders.
thought you maybe interested that next week is their 'fishing week' so as I was thinking of getting a pair of waders to aid the occassional launching/recovery that would mean getting the feet wet. Was looking at spending c£100.
Lidl's have a pair with boots for £9.99...ok may not be fashionable but will do the job..result.
Oh also next week a 9 LED headlamp to put around your head £2.99
10 assorted shackles or 10 assorted karabiners £6.99

Don't bother. The set I had from them died after 2 uses. Split all the way up one leg.

At the moment Lidl have lightweight open face motorcycle crash helmets with visors (£19) and one piece wind/waterproof motorcycle overalls (some silly low price... About £20 I think), if anyone is after a bit of cheap weather protection while out RIBing
