Take a hike: whether you're out for a stroll or on a cross-country hike, our Best Buy waterproof jackets will help you to beat the elements
Article Abstract:
An evaluation of waterproof jackets ranging in price from 60 pounds sterling to over 140 pounds sterling considers their performance. Those up to 60 pounds sterling were fairly breathable but would not protect from a downpour. Most of those in the 140-220 pounds sterling price range were very waterproof and had good breathability. The women's jackets had shorter arms and trunk, but in the trial some women preferred the men's versions. The best buy was Sprayway TL Torridon at 220 pounds sterling, and the North Face Stowaway III at 170 pounds sterling, also performed well. The Adventure Trail Trail was a good buy in the cheaper jacket group, costing 30 pounds sterling.

Take the credit
Article Abstract:
There are many different ways to borrow money, and it is important to consider all the options before going ahead. It is vital to consider the amount which will be borrowed, whether a secured loan is required, the amount of flexibility needed and whether insurance is required. For short-term borrowing, the best credit cards are the Co-operative Bank's Advantage card and HFC Visa. Best current account overdrafts are Abbey National and Alliance and Leicester, while for medium-term borrowing the best loans are from Direct Line and Lombard Bank.
