Graham used it on all his Sennys, its whats recommended in hot countries.

He said if he was going he would use it.... so i am. It with stands higher temps, and with heatwaves in Germany i might need it!

lol @ golf buddy!

The air bed pump isnt a foot pump is it  :-/

If so,  me being a lazy git would chuck that and go get a halfords plugs in ciggie lighter socket electric pump bout £20 (there on offer at the mo) ......you'll be knackered pumping those air beds up by foot  

They come with little adaptors for airbeds/footballs/etc and would be handy if you got a slow puncture
