Always check the availability of toilet paper before committing.

An absolute must!

Another one in relation to this is to always have some baby wipes close to hand for final wipe duties.

Flushed baby wipes block drains.

Anyway... either you'd need to be horrendously inefficient with proper toilet paper or have a poor diet to even contemplate such a thing.

This is simply not the case. The days of wiping st around your arse with dry paper are long gone. Baby wipes are essential for a clean hole. Wipes used until they wipe clean then toilet paper to dry. If you are not doing this then you are just dirty, end of.

Considering the human body generates its own heat, I really do think you've got those the wrong way round.
If you're cold.....run around. You'll soon be warm.
There really is very little that can be done to cool down quite so effectively.

Depends where you are, Shirley. An ice bath or a nice bath are good for opposite ends of the spectrum

Normal baby wipes may well block drains, but these babies don't;

I prefer to use normal dry paper for the clean up operation and a moist wipe to finish the job and add a bit of freshness. Air dry for 10-15 seconds and it's as if nothing ever happened.

Yep. Start with 'right over left'. Then make the loop with the right hand bit for the second part. You are effectively tying a reef knot. Do it the other way and it is a 'granny knot' which as you have experienced easily falls apart.

For even more security, wrap the lace around the loop twice before pulling it through.

Brilliant, this has changed my life

Now I need to re-learn to tie my shoes this way without looking like a complete mong

For walking boots where the lower part has eylets and the upper part has hooks, wrap one lace around the other twice(like doing the first half of a reef knot twice) above the eylets before carrying on to lace the hooks, this keeps the lacing tight on the bottom half of the boot without having to have the top quite as tight.

And where do either of those fit on the "easier" scale?
Without any outside help, it's easier to warm up than cool down.

To dry the inside of a camelbak drink bladder, first empty it, then put some kitchen roll inside it, put the lid back on and inflate it by blowing air through the drinking tube. When it is fully inflated close the drinking tube to keep the air in and shake it. The kitchen roll bounces around inside and absorbs any remaining liquid.

Look after your ears. Now, at 62 and after a life of loud music and louder motorsport, I have lost 30% of my hearing. Unless you are similarly hearing impaired you've absolutely no idea how much you will miss hearing stuff you used to take for granted.
