Re: Water Filter
Katadyn BeFree works well as it's more of a pouch. No problems drinking straight from it but I usually decant into a regular bottle.

I always put a screen protector on, I don't think gorilla glass and the like is up to many thousand gritty finger swipes. My wahoo had one and that wasn't even a touch screen. It still got tatty rattling about when removed at cafés and so on. Fresh film on the screen and you realise how scuffed the ...

Re: The Wolf Way
The section between Southwold and Lowestoft could be straightlined through Sotterley and you wouldn't be missing much.
I know a chap who did the section between Bury and Ipswich the other day and it was an utter mud fest so another reason it's not a year round route!

The other issue with nuclear being the cost and time to build, putting it out of near-term strategy. This comes alongside old plants going offline/being decommissioned.
