sloseph Posted February 23, 2016 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 nice spot thanks I need to up my sock game this year but I refuse to splash out on 1000 mile socks, so I need to start testing alternatives soon last year I went for a cheap hiking sock from Go Outdoors that did not look after me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spindles Posted February 23, 2016 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 Seriously, just buy 2 packs of 5 pairs of bog standard cotton socks and wear 2 pairs. No blisters, no hassle, instead of the friction from boots/wellies being between the sock and the skin it is between the 2 socks, completely prevents all the usual ailments and putting a brand new pair of socks on each day feels like heaven.

Fit on fairly easily no questions asked, although they was first in the queue The problem is, you couldn't know for sure that you're ok until the coach was fully loaded and doors closed - and for most people that's way too much uncertainty. In the case of National Express (I assume the Seetickets coaches are fairly similar) - they've got a decent amount of luggage space available and will obviously try to fit everything in. But they can and do run out of space at times, especially when people are bringing enough kit or beer to last a month with them. When that happens, the people with sack trucks, large trolleys etc are likely to be the first ones affected. I've seen people being told they can't bring their stuff on a coach because they're taking the piss - not sure whether they were turned away or just bumped to a later / quieter departure, either way it's not something I'd want to risk.

I bought 2 of these this week - 1 for myself and 1 for my girlfriend. Cannot recomment it highly enough. Around 7 charges of an iPhone (and i've tested that on my many work train journeys this week). As mentioned, for £16 it's absolutely incredible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joeyjarman Posted March 14, 2016 Report Share Posted March 14, 2016 Anyone got any opinions on these trolleys? Always see the paths littered with knackered trolleys and buckled wheels, but I thought if one would handle the terrain it might be worth it! On sale at the moment too! http://www.funkyleisure.co.uk/off-roader-heavy-duty-festival-trolley-294-p.asp Also, GoOutdoors has a nifty little sale on at the moment, can pick up bits and pieces like backpacks to carry the days beverages etc etc. Proper prior preparation prevents piss poor performance!

I had something similar to that shown on your link. It just about got me back to the car. It literally fell apart at the boot of the car on the way out of the festival. That we were walking in a demented manner didn't help it's survival. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
