Another testimonial to Paramo service
Mon, 11 Aug 2008 17:21:56 +0100
Hello,
As the title says, I posted an article about 5 years ago about Paramo's
lifetime warranty and now I'm doing it again,
This time it was my wife's Scala jacket bought in '94 as far as I
recall. The elasticised wrist fastenings had lost some of their elastic
effect and a couple of the front press studs wer ...

On Line Twins

Browsing around looking for a good price I have come across these two
online stores.

The ONLY diference between them is the name, domain and colours and
fonts used on their websites. They even have the same ...

Just been shown on BBC1 Countryfile.
Can any kind soul give me links to a map of it, please?
Needless to say the BBC.co.uk Countryfile page was useless as was my
Gogle search :-(
Many thanks,

Hills database survey
Fri, 8 Aug 2008 15:19:30 -0700 (PDT)
Some members of this group will have used a hills database maintained
by Graham Jackson and myself at <www.biber.fsnet.co.uk/downloads.html>
We're conducting a survey to gauge what future extensions, if any, are
worth pursuing. If you use the database, whether regularly or not, it
would be very helpful if you c ...

View from Herefordshire Beacon in the Malverns
Fri, 8 Aug 2008 13:35:19 -0700 (PDT)
Although I've walked across the Malverns as far as Worcestershire
Beacon, I've not yet been to Herefordshire Beacon. I was wondering if
the view is any different from there as I know that the Beacon is four
miles south of Worcestershire Beacon, and being further south the
views would be at quite a different angle ...

Walking in Cornwall
Fri, 08 Aug 2008 09:59:48 +0100
I've been going to Cornwall for holidays for quite a few years and so
have walked there quite a bit. But I'm still keen to explore new walks.
Does anyone have any favourites? I'm staying near Marazion but don't
mind gong anywhere in the county.

GPS Altimeter Strangeness
Fri, 8 Aug 2008 07:40:16 +0100
Yesterday I calibrated my GPS altimeter (60CS) at home, cleared the data at
the start of my walk, noted that the altitude was 25m, then ascended to 190m
(according to the GPS). My ascent therefore must have been at least 165m. A
few additional ups and downs must have added at least 15m IMO, so my total
ascent ...

Which GPS to show exact location?
Thu, 7 Aug 2008 20:12:00 +0100
To expand..I use a Garmin with Mapsource and have Memorymap.
What I really really want is OS or similar maps loaded onto the Garmin so
that my exact location at any time when out and about can be shown. I
realise this is not possible.
Anyone know of any addition kit that would provide this for reasonable
outla ...
