    I shopped for many years using a handbuilt touring bike, fitted with a rear rack with the option of large or the smaller "Holdsworth" pannier bags. Tours on an adapted pre-war tandem with the larger panniers, a long flap saddle bag and a front bar bag were made in Spain and Crete. Keeping the weight low down on a rack just fitting over the rear mudguard is advised. I would not advocate the use of front panniers or wearing a rucksack on your back.

      I would suggest the long version....Lengths relate to body /back length .Most of .Weight is supported by hip belt.. Medium would likely be to just below 6ft... also neck to shoulder taper Sizing has changed over time .. men are becoming taller and bottoms wider .. if equipment is 1980s/90s heights were on average lower at that time. I am 6ft 2" ..one inch above and below waist extra Hope this helps

      I suspect it was a machine gun type fitted to a gig firing single round there are several other such holes in different parts of the tank. Or .5 anti-tank rifle maybe to evaluate the potential of refitting aircraft with cannons specific to ground attack using DU. Looking inside the driver's hatch the round was sighted to evaluate what happens after penetration... It appears a fireball with wires burnt and fragments dissipated in the driver's compartment other rounds were through the side of the tank into the command center and engine bay... The engine has been removed perhaps before or maybe after the test firing... The Military channel UA-cam sometimes has russian drone footage.. it can be seen the drone is specifically directed at vulnerable areas of heavily armoured vehicles almost always from behind at engine A single shot from a rifle firing Dau seems to be sufficient to write off tank of the 1950s

      Near to Odiham Castle (also known locally as King John's Castle) is a ruined castle situated near Odiham in Hampshire, United Kingdom. It is one of only three fortresses built by King John during his reign. The site was possibly chosen by King John because he had visited the area in 1204 and it lay halfway between Windsor and Winchester....perhaps this property replaced earlier building..there are some very old trees in an ancient forest in the area I discovered few years ago ..i recon of being 500 years also the Frenchman's Oak outside of Odiham so named because French soldiers of Napoleonic war were billeted to work the farmland..so a lot of accommodation needed..1 in 3 were involved with food production ! in the the growing ...interesting is 1/3 of worlds energy is used in food growing to eating

    The erosion of brick in the corner indicates a less than adequate firing of the brick, I suppose. Is there a solution to stop the erosion on similar bricks? I have heard of a breathable coating that may be available. Would you have any suggestions? John in Bethel, Missouri. USA

    • @manoftheroad55
      @manoftheroad55 2 місяці тому

      Hi a breathable coating UK Ebay ..another option is a damproof injection fluid that prevents moisture rising from foundations , it works by changing the hydroscopic head of the brick ... converts an element created in fired bricks .. thus not allowing water to rise (wicking)...NOT to be confused with silicon. This product ..I attach. is I am thinking a type of silicon "Wykamol Enviroseal Water Repellent is an effective water repellent liquid based on a solvent free silicone/ siloxane emulsion for use above ground on porous brickwork, cement renderings, asbestos, cement/mineral boards, unglazed tiles, cast concrete, roughcast, stonework (including calcareous materials, i.e. those containing limestone), wood, canvas and leather. Surfaces treated with Enviroseal remain permeable to vapour so that moisture within the structure does not remain trapped. Enviroseal is clear and colourless and will not normally alter the appearance of treated surfaces. In some circumstances, however, very slight darkening may occur. Where appearance is critical, a small test area should be applied. It maybe a "snakeoil".. but worth a try

The short back version is extremely uncomfortable while the long back I got by mistake was really comfortable. Now I'm thinking keep the long version. the short back is grade 1 and nothing is broken but the shoulder straps are really uncomfortable. They keep sliding off to the sides and it I tighten them its restricts movement too much. Also I have the PLCE webbing and the long back is still better.
