Yes they do.:D

This thread is insensitive, almost offensive, definitely politically incorrect and absolutely hilarious.

Boards.ie needs to buy a coil of this rope.

The baling twine on the gate that keeps the AH cattle in their field has broken and they've escaped out into BA.

I wonder is it as good as this rope?

Could you imagine the look on their faces when you walk in with 20m of rope and ask for it to be gift wrapped.

Take a walk around any harbour in the country and you'll see the rope that lidl did about 3 years ago is used to secure a lot of boats, including some very expensive boats. It really was great quality stuff last time and it floats which is a benefit for marine usage.
.

People who use floating rope should be strung up with it. I've seen too many propellers found by the bloody things. Ropes should sink, like God Neptune intended.

The trick to using it as an antenna is to keep it wet

There is a problem here. Only 13.1 metres required. What to do with the remaining 6.9metres.:rolleyes:

Dear Kids,
Santa knows you were really good all year and he'd love to bring a shiny new PS3 Slim but unfortunately your Mom & Dad are broke, slowly turning to drink and nearly suicidal from listening to Joe Duffy... But Happy Christmas!! ...your presents are under the tree.
Santa said have fun loosing a few calories, be careful of friction-burns and don't use them on the cat.

PS If you get bored with your presents, leave them back under the tree at night. Your Mommy told Santa she always wanted to try Isome games with him.
TBH kids, Santa probably looked a bit worried -- although he's encouraged that Life doesn't totally suck ass!! But Santa said you kids gotta go to bed early again and not worry about any funny noises ;-)

A piece of Lidl's rope walks into a pub and asks for a pint. The barman says: "sorry, we don't serve rope". The rope leaves dejected and then cuts it's ends and ties itself into a knot and returns to the pub and asks for a pint. The barman says: "aren't you that piece of rope I just kicked out?" And the rope replies, "No, I'm a frayed knot"!!!

A tip for anyone else looking for it gift wrapped: Buy 2 ropes, and use the spare one to wrap it.

While I don't know about their polypropylene rope a family friend in cork used some of their 8mm 200kg cord on his boat and it self destructed in less than 6 months no UV resistance whatsoever.

Yeah but it lasts forever if you just use it in the dark.

I'm at the top of the queue at my local Lidl for this bargain of the century, bizarrely, about 20 people have now joined since this news was released on Boards.ie.

It's not the thickness, it's the length that counts.

I store the briquettes out in the open, should they be covered up from the rain?

20 meters of 4mm rope...which is what you usually get with tarpaulin kits in the diy stores and builders providers.

I just cover them over,as I do with the logs and cut up tree trunks.
