    I'm with hippy's 3 patch threshold lbs bloke.

    Those Park glueless ones work okay longer term with lower pressure applications (eg. 40psi mtbing), but are otherwise a get-you-home measure. They aren't as stretchy as conventional patches, so don't survive further inflations/deflations of the tube very well.

    Rema Tip Top patches even have the peel-off bit perforated down the middle, to avoid messing up the edge of patches while you remove it.

    hippy - what's your philosophy with software? Patch it, or throw out and replace?

    The only things in my patch kit are: patches, a little metal scruffer thing, glue.

    Mick (3 patch guy) rang me from Oz the other day. Eejit had the wrong number. He's fucking funny though so I saved his message. I'm sure you wanted to know that.

    Cool, further evidence to ignore those instant patches. :)

    Rema Top Tip sounds like some kind of feminine hygiene thing - where do you get them?

    With software, it depends. If it's something I've played a part in, best bet is to delete the fucker ASAP! If it's something more reputable then I'd give it a second chance.
