TOP TIP

At the Melbourne Bloke centre there are two coiled airlines – one a tightlywound, flexible number I bought, the other a larger diameter coil of harder plastic donated by a mate. My original can be left anywhere without a problem – the other’s a nightmare. It’ll tangle with anything that comes near it, including itself. So bad, it has to be hung on a post out of the way or it’ll be in knots in seconds. My tip: spend enough to get decent coiled air-lines.
