Anybody repaired walking boots?
Not sure if this is the correct forum but it seemed the best fit. I went for a walk yesterday and my 15 year old walking boots are coming apart at the sole. As the boots are still waterproof I'm sure I can stick the sole back together but I don't know what adhesive to use. Has anybody repaired walking/work boots…

Membership fees not collected for years and I've only just realised
I have a bit of a financial and moral dilemma I'd like your thoughts about, and legal opinion if you have one. I joined a small sports club of about 60 members around 5 years ago.

Is anyone aware of ANY way whatsoever I would be able to get in contact with someone (ideally management) at Total Fitness at this time? I have tried myself of course, but they aren’t currently contactable by telephone. When I email them it gets bounced back as undelivered (I presume they have temporarily stopped accepting…

Fault with Vivoactive 3 (not so smart watch)
I have owned my Vivoactive 3 for 2 years and 1 month and now have a mark on the Vivoactive 3 glass. No damage to the outside but a hugely annoying mark that is in the centre of the watch face.

Total Fitness, coronavius and membership fees
Unlike other major brands, the majority of whom have vouched to freeze memberships free of charge, and will not be taking further direct debit payments while the ban is in place, Total Fitness appears to be wanting their members to stay the course and, I assume, to continue paying the full monthly membership charge. To…

Basic pedometer watch
I’m trying to source a basic pedometer watch. I don’t want to measure my heartbeat, be alerted to calls or texts, monitor my sleeping, be reminded that I need to get up and move about etc, etc, etc.... All I need is something I can strap to my wrist that accurately counts the steps I take. I’ve spent a ridiculous amount of…
