    They are simply white gloves I think. But you shouldn't really wear them as you are more likely to tear them with them on.

    I was just going to say both of these things :D
    Snap search 'white cotton gloves' on Amazon. Moisturiser or liner gloves are thin white cotton.

    I also had a librarian at uni years back poo pooing the use of these gloves with old books. She said if your hands are dirty enough to need gloves.....wash them :D

    :T:T Thanks

    What they are for is, Fourp is re-cataloging all his cigarette cards into clear sleeves.
    His finger tips are cut to ribbons & are sore & painful.
    I want to get him gloves that are fine enough to work in but stop the paper cuts etc

    Vs T

    1 x Cathedral City Mature Cheddar (2x350g)£4.00£7.50:eek: (has been £3.25(?) in M previously, but Northern Ireland probably the best you'll get and, everyone else, not as good as waiting for vs M but you could do far worse!)
    1 x Bass Traditional Draught Ale (500ml)£1.00 £1.99
    (The Ale apparently OOS in T:(, but Sains £2 vs A £1 - no need to go for S's expensive mbuy:eek:. Actually, the 4 pack is cheaper, to compare to A mbuy price, not available in Scotland and drink responsible etc.)

    Vs T/M

    1 x ASDA Chosen by You Smooth Brussels Pâte with Garlic (175g)£0.59£1.44(T)/£1.43(M)

    Maybe TPP or Match and More, but no guarantees whatever they have comparing to here would work the other way.

    Obviously that whole comparable shop was well over 10% cheaper:(.

    Yes, drink "responsibly".

    Whatever that may mean:(.
    Reminds me of a story from a number of years ago. The BBC had done an investigation, undercover maybe if I recall correctly, in a hospital.

    The BBC said its investigation was carried out "responsibly" as it had drawn attention to an important matter in the public interest.
    The hospital called the BBC "irresponsible" as its investigation had (according to the hospital) interfered with staffing and put patients' lives at risk.

    So, what is "responsible"?

    There we have two public bodies disagreeing over such a matter! Public organisations, like ones that set the rules, that order:(/direct:(/instruct:(/advise us to be "responsible", where there are regulators (public organisations) that set out these Codes, that decide the rules, that then require us to be informed to behave "responsibly". Yet, we have two public bodies - neither of which objectively I can prefer the view of over and above the other - regarding the same activity as being responsible and irresponsible. As usual, elsewhere, the Code rule compiler public bodies never define or make clear exactly what that means. Totally usual and typical of this world again(:rotfl:). They can't - it's one of these abstract and wispy concepts again, I've concluded, that so typifies the world, but which they require - or purport to require - us to comply with. Somehow, as I've no idea what they mean:rotfl: (as they never clarified or told me precisely what they meant:p - :eek: is that tongue-out "responsible"? Indeed, do I have to be "responsible" at my age?:think:)

    Perhaps I should not bother or bother thinking about it or guessing at what they might mean, as no-one else ever bothers comply with rules like this anyway:rotfl:.

    At what point does my immediately-prior-that "responsible" drinking seep into being "irresponsible"? Different people I find have different views. Therefore, it's totally meaningless!:rotfl: I've decided that a phrase such as "drink responsibly" therefore mustn't be intended to communicate at all. In this world, who are the effective communicators?(:think::rotfl:)

    EDIT: And...:o:ogoing on about it even more and in more depth...presumably "responsible" might be defined (and even there different people may not agree) as "in a manner that doesn't adversely affect others" (or, presumably, yourself - whatever extent "adverse" means (even that's not clear to me)) - in which case, what does that mean?!? We are back to square one, and none the wiser, as the BBC's operation, in the view of the hospital, did adversely affect others but in the view of the BBC was responsible so, according to that, didn't breach the requirement of falling foul of being outside of the parameter of the word "responsible", whatever that may mean and I still therefore have no clue:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:.
