V off to work - Look'n Good in GoreTex

Look what arrived by courier yesterday. No, not V. The ‘Chilli Pepper Red’ Downpour Jacket. A serious piece of gear.. for a serious adventure…. serious. Should also come in handy for our snowboarding trip next week – will report back on how it performs in the snow.

And yes i’m also a gear junkie. I got a travel shirt yesterday – from Rohan (not the kingdom) and am wearing it today with the intention of hand washing it tonight in the sink to see if is dries by tomorrow !

BTW – We are both in pain having decided to start a tiny exercise routine, about 30 mins a night, to get us ready for the snowboarding and travel. I hope it makes a difference (doubt it), but I guess its better than just sitting on the couch (we do that too).
