My husband works at the local lawn tennis club as a coach and he has coached some really fantastic players in his time. Although none of them have reached Wimbledon standards as yet, they have still gone on to do him proud in competitions across the country. Unfortunately at the moment, the club`s courts are looking decidedly bad and my husband as asked if he could get some Grounds Maintenance Services in to have a look at them and try to make them better. He knows a few Grounds Maintenance Services people and he told the tennis club that it would not necessarily cost very much at all. However, the club have told him that they cannot afford Grounds Maintenance Services at the moment and, in any case, they don`t believe that the courts are in a bad enough state to warrant it. My husband cannot believe this and, I must say, I have never seen him so angry. As he says, the money they charge for membership means that they are in a very lucrative position and he thinks it is totally false economy on their behalf. I hope he manages to change their mind, for his benefit and the benefit of his pupils.

You know, I`m a big fan of Ray Mear and I like to watch his survival programmes on the television. This guy could survive in any hostile condition as his knowledge about survival techniques is highly impressive. I`ll bet Ray would approve of karrimor sf bags and perhaps he has one of his own. Robust and hardy yet extremely lightweight one of these bags would make an ideal companion on a day`s expedition. The karrimor sf bags are made from water repellent fabrics and they have fabulous tear resistant abilities. Inside the bags there`s plenty of room for many essential items of equipment. With numerous pockets and compartments they can swallow up plenty of equipment so nothing has to be left behind. The list of features includes holders for ice picks as well as integrated security pockets. There`s a zipped lid compartment and stuff pockets also to stash all sorts of stuff. In the most hostile environments the karrimor sf bags will be put to the test and they can pass with flying colours. Ray Mear might like to put one through its paces just to see just how brilliant it is at carrying essential items of survival aids.
