Photo 17 Apr A drawing from earlier this year celebrating the purchase of a new pair of winter gloves from Aldi. I should perhaps take this opportunity to apologise to the German supermarket chain. You see, I popped out for a spin to give said gloves a thorough test only to find on my return that my hands were somewhat less than warm; about a million degrees less than warm to be precise. This naturally resulted in yelps of “oh the pain” and foul-mouthed ranting about how useless the gloves were. However, subsequent testing of various other and considerably more expensive gloves - sometimes literally various as at least once I went out with an odd pair on - proved no more successful. So my apologies Aldi, not a bad pair of gloves at all.
