Ah, now I've got your attention MNHQ; I can almost here the klaxon sounding from here. Smile

I don't mean that F4J, I mean this one;

What's happening with our new topic? Eh? Eh?

My DH has mended his boots with superglue and it seems to be holding.

I had to google that. I learned something today.

I think you should seek out a cobbler, for no more reason than you could then say "I sought out a cobbler."

Some kind of sealant I'd suggest. Something which flexes. Sikaflex or something.

As you freaky outdoors lot are all here, what's the best way to deal with the edge of the rubbery stuff coming away, partway up the toe of a gortex(?) boot? Will trusty super glue do it or do I need to seek out a cobbler?

ArielNonBio · 14/03/2012 17:32

Wrong thread. I'll do it on t'other.

Northey · 14/03/2012 17:32

And do it in the proper thread. We'll never get our own topic if they think we won't keep things tidy.

Northey · 14/03/2012 17:30

Set the scene, woman, for the love of God! Pearlescent dawn, gleaming swell of the waves, the doeskin softness of a seal nose breaking the surface...

Maybe. And jealous about the basking sharks.

Well I'm not doing that am I? Otherwise I would be trying to entice her across the Tamar.

You're still sore about the sparrows aren't you? Aren't you?

Northey · 14/03/2012 17:09

It's in Monmouthshire, rierie. Stop trying to take Kate away from me.

ArielNonBio · 14/03/2012 17:07

I hate the way Kate talks as though she never knows where her sentences are going to end up when she starts them, fill of "ahs" and "ums".

Kate's farm in Powys, Norf? Maybe you can help with lambing live this year?

CarpeJugulum · 14/03/2012 17:03

I miss Bill Oddie

Not strictly relevant to topic, but still...

Northey · 14/03/2012 17:00

I'm a Kate girl. She lives down the road from me, atcherly.

ArielNonBio · 14/03/2012 16:53

Where?

(Talking of Springwatch, where do we stand on the Kate vs Michaela thing? I like Michaela MUCH better. Will she be there for SW 2012, does anyone know?)

FryingNemo · 14/03/2012 14:48

So now would be a bad time to mention that it is 17 degrees here?

Slubberdegullion · 14/03/2012 14:32

I am in my merino base layers right now QS. All three of them (well one is technically a mid layer).

Another vote for Matt Baker, or any of the Spring Watch crew.

Northey · 14/03/2012 09:29

Maybe that nice tech person could turn out to e an outdoorsy type too, and could feed off our ideas to create fantastic mumsnet nature apps - a whole new lovely revenue stream!

GrimmaTheNome · 14/03/2012 09:22

pooh - I don't know of an app that does that. DH has apps to help identify birds and plants, but they aren't that slick yet. Don't know what they are called.

We need a thread for Outdoorsy Shite: apps but might be better for someone who can make some proper recommendations to start it.

QuintessentialyHollow · 14/03/2012 09:09

Did anyone mention Merino Base layers?

Hello Olivia Apologies for the klaxon.

I went to bed. Have to be up with the larks y'know, see the sunrise, and the morning dew.

(not really, I'm a lazy moo TBH)

It's got to be Ourdoorsy Shite.
