What did you buy today?

[NS40]

My 2nd Sawyer mini. I got fed up rooting out my bergan to take the one I use for camping trips every time I was going out for the day. It made absolute sense to buy another one to leave in my daysack.

My wife doesn't think that's a justifiable putrchase...you guys get it though, huh?

I bought 3 of the cheapo sporks from China. Hard to go wrong at 99p posted. Looking at buying a thermal imaging system for search and rescue. Not from China and definitely not 99p

Small garden trowel from the bargain bin at the newsagents for 30p and a couple of watertight 'Klip Seal' boxes from poundland. One for FAK the other as a case for my mobile phone.

Pair of Green Canvas Micarta Blanks (again for the Enzo necker)
10pcs Abrasive belts 25mmx762mm(1"x30") £3 for a 10 pack bargin!
Phillips Professional Gun Blue paste (I've been wanting to try bluing some blade steel, tried a bit on an old Stanley blade and that stuff is effective!)

HSS Super Extra Long Professional Twisted Drill Bits 3mm, 250mm long (for drilling knife tail holes in wood)
100pc 1/2" Sanding Bands Kit with 2 Sanding Drum Mandrel For DREMEL (as I've run out)
Aluminum Paracord Needle With Screw Thread (after loosing my good old brass one I made years ago and not being bothered to make a new one, and to see you can pick up one on ebay for a quid).

Timex Vintage Milatary Aviator Type Chronograph Watch (I've been after a Vietnam style watch, just a big bigger, found one from America.

And not bushcrafty, but I LOVE the old Survivors TV series (the original 70's version, NOT the remake from about 2008). Years ago I got the DVD boxset of all 3 series and LOVE it, but I found out the single series releases have some more extras, like some episode commentaries (something I really like). Well I sent of for series one used off Amazon UK for £3. BTW If you also like it, Big Finish are doing audio dramas, even with some of the original cast, 40 years on. Still set in the 70's when it happened. They are REALLY REALLY good!!!
