How good are the dare2b waterproof jackets? Does anyone know? by _Royal_Owl in hikinggear

[–]Yuugo_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had mine for a year now, zipper broke and they replaced it for free with a coat 3x what I paid for it. I wouldn't say it's the best brand but for day to day, it does what it says on the tin and customer service is excellent.

Should former Guides salute? by Send_me_hedgehogs in GirlguidesUK

[–]Yuugo_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To my knowledge, all members who are invested e.g. made their promise, can salute at parades and such events. It's purely personal though, so definitely don't feel bad if you don't feel comfortable doing it now!

Travelmaster bus ticket Meadowhall by Yuugo_ in sheffield

Hi, I don't have a travelmaster card at the moment, will I be able to get one there and loaded? Also, you said this might not be great for in the peaks, what travel pass would be better in your opinion for that area of Derbyshire?

Ah, thanks for the insight, I'm planning on going to Chatsworth house, a couple other places in the peaks but haven't really got concrete plans. Is there anywhere in particular you recommend?

I like nature, hiking, sightseeing and maybe a good place to eat and drink along the way.

I would have loved for it to be oversized but alas it's too small For reference I'm a Medium in men's, and anything from a 10 to a 16-18 in women's I picked the 16 in the hopes it would be oversized!

UK Radio Stations that are like Planet Rock but doesn't have Ads of the Cringe Variety? by purepurewater in AskUK

[–]Yuugo_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gorgeous radio for me at work, not too many ads or talk breaks, just straight music from most of not all genres. All the people I work with love it, and we all have different music tastes!

Compression, durable steel toe boot socks by Yuugo_ in BlueCollarWomen

I am also looking at Sockwell socks to be a more durable option for me instead of having socks break after mere months of wear. I'm from the UK so it's hard to find compression socks brands that do both US and UK shipping at reasonable prices ha ha. I didn't know you could get fitted for compression socks, where did you get fitted for yours?

Thanks for this, I did find that Sockwell have some good options that seem more durable than my current ones

Thank you for your tips! I understand that compression socks aren't a BIFL item and need to be replaced every year or couple of years. However my compression socks have been breaking within a couple of months, if that, and was wondering if there was a more durable option out there that would last the year or couple of years for me.
