"Mr BaconBonse"....do you mean me?

Didn't mean to offend anyone but...

When your out for a nice afternoons walk and you have to step aside to let 30 germans, all with two poles each storm past you with out a thank you..you get a bit negative...

i am sure they dont all have bad knees!

I am sure there are some of you out there who do find life easier with two sticks...I use one now and again because i have a dodgy ankle...but I have also done plenty of walking all over the UK..and in the Himalaya...with out the need to go into my nearest outdoor store and spend great amounts of money on the latest accessories, or something-texed clothing. There is no law yet that says we have to have the latest technological fashions before we go for a walk......but don't tell Prestcott.
