Guantanamo Bay

The bright orange ones for the community service programme . Free to muggers and burglars or £1 from your local car boot. I dare lie down in them and weld and don't have to worry about oil stains not coming out though.





yours, Pete

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

Overalls, that's a bit posh! I've got an old pair of jeans and t-shirt or padded shirt depending on the weather.





I've lived a life that's full.
I've traveled each and ev'ry highway.
But more, much more than this,
I did it side-ah-ways.

Shorts and Sandals for me!

That way you get a nice all-over tan when you weld - not just your right arm!

What an abstract topic,

OK; olive green fire retardant, Corporal rank slides on the shoulders, several Squadron badges on the sleeves.

Oh, free replacement if they get to dirty or damaged.

Dark Blue Lightweights

Orange Normal Weight

Orange Quilted Winter ones

All with company logo on, all with reflective strips, all with my name embroidered on them all fireproof (well they were before they got washed). Very posh, but standard company issue and since I am now behind a desk, all but one pair stay at home.

Orange Heavy Welders ones too(buttons not zip, case you arc the zip, and sewn in kneepads.) very nice, with some other companies logo on the back. Just left behind in our locker room and in my size.

Not posh at all, didnae spend a penny on any of them.

i got myself some flame retardant navy blue ones for a tenner at stoneleigh as i always seem to stand just a bit too close to warm bits.

bought them really because they were heavy weight fabric, but the flame retardency is a bonus, especially for a tenner.

sparco evo overalls, what do you think you're building, a bloody c******m?!?
