    Tools. There's always something you don't have but might one day need. I've just furnished the family with my Christmas list, with links to specific items so they don't get me any cheap sh1t.

    Or whisky. Ditto.

    Consumables. I always have a handful of brake blocks/pads, cables, inner tubes etc in my shed. The kind of unexciting stuff that you are always glad you have at short notice but never really enjoy buying.

    no. i have several pairs bought at the sealskins outlet before before i knew any better and in fact i am wearing some right here, right now.

    they give you blisters and don't work very well.

    not recommended.

    their gloves are rubbish as well.

    spend the money on drugs instead.

    Yup. Drugs. Lots of 'em. But nothing compares to these blue and yellow purple pills

    Also beware of accompanying bats!
