and warms you a third time loading it into bags, carting it indoors, and stacking in the inglenook around the wood-burner.

I find that the rubber part doesn't last long before it separates from the glove itself.

I've now got a few pairs of knitted gloves with bits of rubber on them!

Best gloves I've come across are Tornado Contour Avenger. "Seamless lightweight nylon gloves with technically blended palm coating". They stand up to drystone walling, have good grip, but still light enough not to really mess up your dexterity.

Box of 10 pairs approx £12 inc from CostCo.

Now that is cheap! Online they are c 20 UKP (18.80 on Amazon by the look of it) but no Costco near me.

Cheap by comparison to cheap, not so good, gloves from the likes of Screwfix, Tool Station etc.

CostCo is 50 miles from us, don't go very often and try an combine it with other things. CostCo do have a "direct" service but they don't have Tornado's listed.

A coupon from Toolsatan for a free pair of gloves arrived the other week, just as I was leaving to buy stuff from them anyway, I thought I might as well try a pair, so I shoved them the coupon and asked for size XL

Sorry mate you'd have to buy those, you can only have size L for free, can't get them on even at a pinch.

I'd expect, more or less, the same number.

Only decimals.

Decimal digits?
