DesperateDan posted:I then made the choice to stop for the day- I had wanted to clear the new area on the north field, and didn't feel too tired at that point, but it was hitting 30C and I would have no cover whatsoever- it's gonna be great for crops there. With how sore/slightly sunburnt I am today it was probably the right call Yeah, I've been doing a lot of work outside in the sun and bought some gear specific for it, namely some UV forearm covers, peaked hat with neck cover, and most recently 20 plain white fruit of the loom tshirts (for just over 30 quid) because my current ones leave a gap at the neckline. Begone, sun.

I called off on my project today, no way I'm working out in that, I can barely work in my kitchen. DesperateDan posted:A wide brimmed boonie hat has been my best purchase for that so far, next time I cut I'm gonna use some old formal shirts for the reflective white and the baggy factor- longsleeved anything seems a winner, sweat be damned. That's why I like these: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B06WGW7P1R They keep the sun off, wick sweat pretty well, and because it's not a full on long-sleeve top you get to keep some venting.

DesperateDan posted:They look good, I might grab some- how thick are they? My only concern is with sap spatter soaking through and still giving me chemical burns with it held tight to me. They're fairly thin, think lycra shorts or what have you. They protect me against scratches against brick and splintery wood, but I've not spilled anything on them so I don't know how you're fare there.

DesperateDan posted:The people in the bad parts of the nation who say it wrong are a contrary sort who say those who have the proper and just ways are wrong- and they denigrate and smear the brave lands that produced such fine folk. I'm from one of the blue areas in the middle, so I do say scone like cone, but I've lived all over the place and as such I keep an open mind about such things. Probably aided by the fact that I'm a software developer and so most of what I do has to be written in American English.
