    watch strap compass

    A few years ago Suunto used to make one for diving that you could clip onto the strap of a diving watch. I had one on the strap of my dive computer, I never really used it properly in anger, just so I had a rough idea of where I was going in crappy visibility. It was pretty durable as I...

    Colour Of Clothes

    +1. I tend to go for OD, browns and darker Khaki. The occasional bit of black to break it up if I'm looking a bit too OD. I like to try and blend in as much as possible, but by the same measure (in my eyes) stay as far away from the military look as much as possible. Not that there's anything...

    Mini Tabasco Sauce bottle

    I got a couple of bottles of the milder green jalapeno Tabasco off ebay last week. It tastes great, a lot milder than the original red Tabasco. Tangy and full of flavour, I used the first bottle in a couple of days!!!

    Pine Tar Soap

    I've been using the American stuff off ebay for a while now, it lasts longer than the Grandpa's but doesn't seem to lather quite as well, though I wouldn't say there's much in it. It definitely lasts longer. The only major downside is it's not as cheap as it was with the exchange rate being...

    sleeping bags for fatty

    Just got a email back from Snugpak after I sent a query regarding the dimensions of their bags. Basically, the UK made bags are 220cm long and have a circumference of 160cm. The imported bags are 220cm long as well but have a circumference of 150cm. The expander panels give an extra 50cm but...

    That's a great review Sniper, thanks. Sorry to be a pain but is there any chance you could please measure the width of the bag lying flat at the shoulders with the expander panel attached? I'm 6'5" and a 54" chest, currently have a Nanok -10ºc that Nanok state is 86cm at the shoulders...

    how to repair hole in drybag

    Had a look at the Alpkit dry bags? The most expensive one they do is the 35lt at £7.00 and that's including delivery. IIRC the next one down is the 20lt at £5.50 delivered. Feel free to beat me about the head here if I'm wrong, but if you're going to spend five or six quid on a repair kit...

    sleeping bags for fatty

    Thanks for the Info. I'm more like the 3XL variety myself :D I have a Nanok -10ºc bag myself. Not used it yet, and would sell it on and go for a Snugpak Elite if they're bigger. Is that roughly 86cm across the chest with the extender panel 'extended' or not?
