I've finally plucked up the courage to join and actually post.
Basically i'm a fairly shy guy until i get to know people so please don't all have a go at all at once.
The gloves came about because when i do the washing up at the "camps" i use hot water straight from the kettle so that i can get the plates clean and my friends took the mick out of my marigolds to point of them actually supplying the nice pink ones.
