I saw them as well and nearly bought some except that CostCo have
something very similar with edging pieces and, IIRC, covering a larger
area (6 bits about 1m sq?) for a similar price maybe £15, so I didn't.

A four pack of lock together floor stuff? Don't think we have a Netto with
a hundred miles of here though. Oh no I was wrong there is one in Carlisle
only 20 miles away I'm going to Carlisle tommorow...
Looks through online offers booklet from the 24th, 61cm x 61 cm x 4 bits =
1.5m^2. My memory of the Tesco ones is larger and certainly the Costco
ones but I will be passing Tesco first as that is opposite the Land Rover
dealers in Carlisle, (84,000 mile service and brake freeing booked). And
£4.99 to keep my feet warmer in the unheated workshop/garage is almost a
no brainer.

Not up here they aren't. One in Carlisle, a handful around Newcastle and
thats about it within reasonable striking distance.

In the middle of Englands Last Wilderness. People think Dartmoor is a
large remote area, you can put about 6 Dartmoors in a ring around us
without overlapping anything bigger than a large village and certainly
nothing that has the normal High St shops, like Boots, Woollies, WHSmith
etc

Right... if I have to emigrate to the UK I think you've described where
I'll end up living.

Just, Northumberland and County Durham are just a few miles down the road,
North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. That big blank bit on
road maps to the right of the M6 as you pass the the Lake District on the
left.

It is pretty incredible around there I get up to Alstom delivering and a
few places further into the hinterland where they shoot at you with very
large ordnance if they don't like you.

Warcop is 15 odd miles to the south... we can hear the distant whump of
the ordance on some days. They don't do much if any real firing up at
Spadeadam, thats mainly aircraft based electronic countermeasures.

Anywhere near Sedbergh?
We get up there to do harchery (just down the hill from Lambrigg wind farm)
on May day bank holiday weekend, tend to stay at a campsite in Sedbergh,
where we've been known to patronise one or another of the local hostelries
for a few bevvies and dinner.

Penrith turn right and go NE for 20+ miles.
