Mail for help.Help!!

Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

This Merthyr boy doesn't, but I do like to think I can exercise a bit of respect when I disagree with something posted by a fellow snowHead.

Exactly, that is what I am suggesting Mr H does.

Of course. That is exactly what I almost always do, and have done in this thread.

I'm not sure where you think I have posted an insult, as such.

I very much consider myself not a "Merthyr boy" Sad If I had realised just how bad Merthyr is, I would very possibly not have moved so close to it.

Yeah right, whatever, Coke is calorie free according to alex_heney


What utter rubbish.

In fact, given what I have posted, that is bordering on being an outright lie.

Agreed.

But, yes, I do sometimes get a little heated when I feel somebody is being derogatory about things that others choose to do, which harm nobody.

Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy

But I'm not asking you to like or agree with me.

I just find it irritating when you (or anybody else) post things that make it look as if you want to control what others do, unless of course, you feel they are negatively affecting others by what they do.

And I suspect that you don't actually want to so control people, it is just the way it comes across (to me at least) in some of your posts.

If you don;t often feel thirsty when skiing, then a hydration bladder is indeed pointless for you.


You can be dehydrated long before you feel thirsty. The idea is to not get a dry mouth and the feeling of thirst in the first place. Don't wait until you feel thirsty to drink.

When I first got my bladder I used it for hill walking. I was amazed at how much better I felt using it. In actual fact, I was drinking less than if I used bottles yet I felt much better and fresher when using it. I think I tended to only drink water from bottles when I was starting to feel really thirsty which is the wrong thing to do because if you're getting very thirsty your body is starting to dehydrate. Of course it was linked with having to stop and take a bottle out etc which is a hassle. With the bladder I have a few sips here and there, never have to worry about stopping and am obviously much better hydrated compared to what I used to be with carrying bottles.


exactly,

I used one for the first time last week and i would rather have a squidgy bag of water in my backpack that I can have a quick sip from at any time ...... than a bottle of water rattling around that I have to fish out every time i wanted a drink.

The system on my BCA Stash pack (tube is zipped into the shoulder strap as well has having foam insulation) seems to work well. It has never frozen in normal winter conditions, although I will blow-back if it's very cold.
