    The other thing I was wondering: can customers visit Compass point,or is it mail order only?
    CL. Jalas are Finnish - also, I'm told, the only company that make ski-boots dedicated to ski-jumping, watch any international event and they are all in Jalas boots. Orienteering friends, who also fell-run, tell me that these and the Swedish 'Olway' shoes are far more bomb-proof than British fell shoes.
    Compass Point Online is Rick & Angela's internet outlet. They have a high street shop in the very centre of Lytham - Get Outdoors. As ever, I cannot remember the address but I could take you straight there. Rick is always happy to chat and advise. Ring before you go, as he could be out visiting suppliers or 'on the hill' - his dad covers for him. 'Phone number and address should be on the web site.

    I used a pair of VJ dobs last weekend at White Coppice - brilliant on ice covered tracks, felt very safe. Have had Jalas in the past which I found more comfortable. Bought the VJs because at the time they were on special offer.

    Both are very helpful
