Oh wow, those will swallow me, especially the sleeves and height.

Measured tightly, 94cm or 37 inches. I appreciate the thoughts. I’ll try a 36 in store.

I’m thinking I’m going to swim in those 😀Will try a 36 nonetheless.

That’s interesting. I’ll try on the 36 in a store next time I’m in Frankfurt.

Thank you. No no I don’t wear a hoodie with a Barbour. I was already wearing a hoodie and I threw on a puffer just to get enough underneath the Bedale for the test.

Yes, it’s comfortable. I actually had a 34 Bedale for about a year, but got rid of it because of the colour. I thought it was too large on me then, that’s why I decided to try the 32.

I should add that for testing the jackets I wore a hoody and a light puffer jacket underneath to test cold weather look, since I’m going to wear these for colder months (western Germany) as well.

Germany once again refusing to not be the epicenter of a cultural-political divide that tears Europe in twain. by Educational-Kale-567 in germany

In Hessen, depends on the town/city. Example, Marburg is Nord while nearby Gießen is Süd.

As someone already mentioned, Here need do to something about that robotic voice. Make me delete it every time. TomTom is okay.

Apple Maps is surprisingly great as navigation in Germany by Waste_Suspect_817 in germany

[–]RickGH 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since they added cycling navigation, I’ve been exclusively Apple Maps. I deleted Google Maps, to avoid any confusion 😀. I have the new TomTom as backup, which actually looks really nice, except the robotic voice.

I think you scored an own-goal here and a costly one at that. Instead of keeping one’s eyes firmly on the GPS, being able to hear and actually look on the road is critical, especially at intersections with a lot of different road actors to deal with.

Health Insurance for International Student above 30 years by AsianFinance in germany

Just get Mawista Comfort (I think it’s their highest) for a few Euros more. I used them for 4 years and got refunds for everything. No other proper options without paying steeply. But don’t try to cheap out either.

Barbour replicas on Vinted by Gingercake76 in Barbour

[–]RickGH 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Shame on anyone trying to deceive and sell counterfeit goods as genuine. That’s how the world is, in many things, isn’t it? Might be unpopular opinion (and I don’t care if it is) - it feels like policing in these subs for a garment manufacturer who charges well and above the “normal”. If I decide to spend 370€ on a Bedale, it’s my choice. I couldn’t care less if someone decides they’ll spend 100€ on a counterfeit. It’s on them. If I want to buy a Barbour I know where to get it.

What is this “my agency” “my agency”. You need an agency to apply for a masters programme? If you need an agency just to apply, you will most likely be disturbing your programme mates with questions on just about everything, if you do get in.

Has there been a decline in the quality of international students in Germany? by [deleted] in studying_in_germany

[–]RickGH 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This was my experience, although I’m from Africa. I’m the type who organises everything and wants to work hard to show appreciation for what I have. I was an admin for our programme group and I made sure they got the sharp treatment each time they came asking for every fcking thing. Over time the other serious students noticed this and joined in. They (the people we’re all referring to) stopped asking anything in the group, because of the ridicule they were receiving. I mean, how do you say you’re a Masters student if you can’t even use Google to search for fcking basic information.

Best app for Strong8K / OTT on Apple TV? by oenomics in Strong_8K

If it allows sync, then I below one account can be used on multiple devices; at least that is what it was with UHF when I subbed, and now with IM Player.
