Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better!
Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

If you have a pressure point in your boots where the liner has compacted, a good temporary solution ('till you have the time or money to get it sorted professionally!
) is to insert some suitable packing between the liner and the shell. I have found a good and cheap way of doing this is to purchase a "Kneeler Pad" (the type made of medium density foam) from a Garden Centre together with a roll of double-sided Carpet Tape. This foam can be cut and shaped with a sharp knife and seems to offer just the right resilience for the purpose. You then stick the foam to the liner with the carpet tape - all this for less than a fiver.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?
