i would cinsider rocket to be a red colour also, so it being green is a bit weird. i got a blue one too, so i can wear for a few runs, then wash and have a second waiting in the drawer i was gonna get the get vayper ones, but they has none in stock in size. i went small after measuring myself again a couple of more times, and im glad, id say the med wouldve been baggy so less effective

@ColinD. thanks for the tip! Alpkit Koulin base layer tops. really comfortable, snug fit, good price, teeshirt over it was alot less sweaty than usual. trail tights.. really snug, but comfortable. i like the thigh pockets, hold the phone fully immobile during the run so not slapping off my thigh. last night was the coldest run ive done so far, but my torso was just lovely and comfortable. hands were cold during the outward leg. legs.. could feel the cold air coming through, but it was alright since i was moving. need to clean that mirror.....

i couldnt face a run wed night, or friday night. something about 5 hrs broken sleep and 11 hr days out in the wind cold and rain put me off wanting to go running.. so i went tonight, in my new Alpkit base layers. ill do a post on them tomorrow. not a brilliant time, but given ive not been out since Monday and that im knackered anyway i was happy. it was a solid run that i was comfortable with the pace i held throughout, so it was grand.

You know all those new and used cars we haven't been buying during lockdown ...
since i thought of that, i just a vision of some lad going in, paying 18k for a "midsize saloon petrol" key. hoping for a vrs 245 and being at the gate on the way out in a base spec 1litre focus saloon

i would love to see just a big 50gallon drum with all the car keys in it. no reg tags on them, just all the keys together but that gave me an idea.... just separate the keys out into different barrels based on size and fuel type, with descriptions of whats what so all the hatchback diesels are together in a barrel, all the electrics etc. then you open it up as a treasure hunt. pay lets say, 10k for a hatchback diesel key, then you rummage in the barrel blindfolded and pick one. if you can then find that car in the storage facility you keep it you get the type of car you wanted, cheap, but mightnt be the spec or model you expected.

the back also looks really unbalanced. i can get over the off centre number plate, and boot handle, but i was behind one yesterday with a towbar and i could get rid of the feeling that the hitch and its cutout in the bumper looked like it was off centre by about 3 or 4 inches. even though it wasnt, it just looked all sideways. its also clearly eaten all the cgrustmas cake every year.. its massive now! must be bigger than a circa 2006 RR Sport, possibly even a Full Fat of the same zera!

Invisible gearknob legend
id go along with that. my FL mk2 Octy is faded the exact same way since before i bought it. i even asked the exact same question as the OP about there being an led in there somewhere mine is so barely there it really looks like its an etched bottom surface for light diffusion.
