Fjallraven do decent ones but they’re a tad pricey. 

[YorkDon]

Craghoppers are decent enough.

they're decent for the price like. Dry quickly .

Depends on what you need them for - do you need pockets, do you need them to be light/ particularly waterproof etc. Most expensive isn't always best.

[Parklife]

Are decent breathable waterproof ones a fortune? Planning on doing a bit of walking on holiday next month but they'd likely be consigned to a drawer forevermore after that, so  very much looking for a budget pair. 

[BigInnes]

Holiday to Munich in May.

The ones you use are the ones I’m on about. Couldn’t be fucked looking for links. 
 

Only thing which will stop you wearing them is if your waist size balloons. Bulletproof otherwise as you said.

£150. Yikes. The 3rd choice on Poodler's list at £40 is my absolute maximum spend

Just get yourself a pair of regatta ones from Amazon or wherever. £15 or so, detachable into shorts. I got a pair for going away a couple of years back and they did the trick.

Got a decent pair of Craghoppers on sale at thon shop in Inverurie . Those Fjallraven ones are nice but extortionate price just for hiking . Happy with my purchase nice dark gray colour

Fjallraven trousers are very good. Shorts aswell. £££ but worth it if you are a frequent user. 

Northface also do some alright lightweight trousers that can be zipped off. Shorts also OK but pockets a bit suspect (some not securable).  Quick drying aswell.  They are about £50 -70.

 

[redstrummer]

Also purchased a pair of Patagonia shorts (blue ) a Patagonia shirt ( lightweight denim look ) and an Edwin T ( black )

Loch Muick poodler?

 

[1903Fitba]

Some guns on him. 

[Parklife]

A pair of Adidas sabalo trainers. 

[Don Fonte]

1 x bottle of whisky.

3 x bottle of wine.

1 x bottle of Amaretto.

1 x case of Koppaberg.

 

 

[Parklife]

The kopparberg better be for either a woman or a tennager. 

[Don Fonte]

A woman, correct. A bit older than a teenager though.

Spinning bike for the new garage gym 

[daytripping]

I actually cleaned up the garage tonight to prime for the arrival of my daughters new treadmill, won't embarrass the poster by naming him as I know he wouldn't want that but someone on here got in contact with me after reading my daughters treadmill was broken and offered me one that was going unused at his place, absolute gentleman and scholar, wouldn't accept any payment either. Good people are out there and if this guy ever needs any help with anything in the future he knows he can count on me, made my daughter so happy, can't put a price on that.

That's why I got rid of my hoover. 

[daytripping]

My boys club manager when I was about 13 dropped dooon deed when jogging home from one of our training sessions, always made me suspicious about the art of running. Was a main reason why I always stood at fitba trouble.
