    Never went to Rovers. Uniform used to be light blue with purple epaulettes for venturers, might have gone to 18-19, can't recall.

    The new uniform is much more comfortable and wearable! I mostly wear my rugby jersey instead of the shirt!

    Do yous really have to wear black trousers like?

    They are navy and I just say to them to wear plain dark pants trousers! I wear tracksuit bottoms! The scouts trousers are ok, you can turn them into shorts :)

    Busy, frustrating BUT so rewarding and I love it as I am such a big kid. I just love it, even when I want to strangle some of them!

    I used to just wear jeans :o

    I'd have been the sort of scout that Pem would have always been "giving off" too.
    Oh I would, jeans are not good for scouts as if they get wet when hiking / outside they won't dry fast and become heavy too!

    size though, I need the long leg jeans but preferably a 30 waist which is hard to come by!

    I find it very difficult to find 32w 34l jeans or chinos thesedays - they're like unicorn pants

    Yup, I can wear 32/34 too and they are hard to get. For a 34L most places things start at 34W.

    Although a friend of mine would wear (I guess) about a 34W and a 30L. Must be a nightmare! :pac:
    God that does sound hard to find!

    True - many 34l pants would have a larger waist, it's awful when you see a nice pair of jeans and they have them in almost ever size EXCEPT yours! :(
