*Stars indicate people that I don't know whether they're still active members or not. If anyone knows of these people, could you please let me know! Thanks.

For those starting out and who have no idea what I am talking about it
is customary to mark your gear with tape that matches your favourite
pair of pants so when you do you obligatory first lead in your keks you
look stylish. It also helps when trying to sort out gear or ID lost
property.

To register your gear tape colours here please mail me.

Please check the list before you mark your gear.
Also, please check the list before emailing me with
a combination that is already in use!

Thanks,

Gareth
