(2/2) Today, after letting it dry you can still see discolourations (darker compared to the rest) although it feels dry to the touch.
Very much disappointed in the quality... .

@mammut I just bought a Convey Hoody HS during a travel in the North of Spain. After less than 30minutes in medium intensity rain it started wetting out. The same day I bought the jacket!
What are my options?
I'm travelling to different places and 9-09 I will be back in Belgium

@kristin_harila It is not a clear cut story to say that the other climbers (of which Karila is the most prominent one) bear responsibility. A rescue in those circumstances,at that altitude and dangerous location, is as good as impossible.

[Thomas Wellens @ThomasWellens]

@kristin_harila For those who want to read an objective summary of what happened with Hassan please read the following: https://t.co/5niBEGxRnE
Imho the company who sent Hassan with insufficient experience, low quality and limited gear, bears a big part of the responsibility.

🇪🇺 Closing debate on the European Year of Youth and endorsement of the Charter for Youth and Democracy. It was a pleasure to meet you, @valentinasercla, and I hope to see you soon, because the future of #Europe is the future of its regions. @EFA_Youth @eu_regions_cities #YEP2022

[Thomas Wellens @ThomasWellens]

Thanks to the EU Committee of the Regions' YEP programme I can actively contribute to bring Nature-based Solutions (NbS) and ecosystem restoration high on the political agenda.

@DDehenauw Zeer korte (5-10minuten) hevige bui met verschillende bliksemontladingen die naburige kranen op Nieuw-Zuid in Antwerpen hebben geraakt. Veel sterkere windstoten dan vrijdag, maar korter.

@alexanderdecroo Ik keer morgen terug na een verblijf van 9 dagen bij mijn Spaanse schoonfamilie in Gran Canaria. Gran Canaria is oranje maar kom terug na een korte tussenstop in Lissabon (transit gedurende 2 uur). Geldt deze regel dan ook? Het digitale PLF houdt geen rekening met transitvlucht.

@guyverhofstadt No I don't. Stop speaking on behalf of us.
What if the majority of Europeans don't want a transnational list? You'll just keep on pushing it through and do what you think is right, not what you should do i.e. represent your voters. #justquitguy

@destandaard Bedankt voor de spoiler! #kwaliteitskrant?

[Thomas Wellens @ThomasWellens]

@crevits Jammer dat met zo'n bedrag een veel groter effect kan bekomen worden op wereldvlak door regenwoud te beschermen (ongeveer 400eur per hectare via World Land Trust) -- Veel groter effect op CO2-uitstoot + biodiversiteit + vrije natuur.

Fan-tas-tisch initiatief. Samenwerking tussen Vlaamse regering en Leo Van Broeck zal alleen maar positieve impact hebben op ons zo versnipperde Vlaamsche land. Uitbreiden naar alle gemeenten na proefperiode? #VlaReg #bouwmeester #NVA https://t.co/YQYGi9fAsa
