they have Rough Rider ones on Heinnies for a tenner if you just wanted to try one out

Wheat bags! Get a proper long one (without Lavender if possible) hot as you can and try to find the best position for it - I find its along the arch of my pelvis on the affected side. Heat is your friend! As a side note; If you are ever in a car accident and end up on a gurney in A&E with one...

I heard it being used whilst we were there!

Had a Weekend away recently, with the NCT class we joined when expecting our first daughter. Rented a big house on a farm out beyond Thirsk. Brilliant time more kids than adults and a very fine Pub/Micro Brewery. They also had a wood stove in the house and a wood-store in one of the...

Mines a Movember left over as well glad to see another handlebar on the go - I'm enjoying mine too much to shave it off! I've even invested in Moustache wax!!

Something like this Southey? More Edwardian than 80's though!

An old (ish) one but it's me! Add another little girl and a comedy moustache to bring it up to date!

Cheers mate, I know I'm blagging, so ta very much and whenever/if ever is more than good enough. They used to turn up in seccy shops fairly regular but... Thanks again!

Ay up Chiseller, I apologise if I'm jumping into owt I shouldn't but I've been trying to find summat like that for a while now. If you find any more in the 40" chest region I'd be interested. Ta!

So let me get this right; a small chopper is better than a large chopper as long as you know how to use it, is the consensus (apart from the chap who has a big chopper and wouldn't know what to do with a small one?). Choppers, in general, can give you a nasty gash unless you handle them...

Is it just a parent thing but my first thought was - how did he manage to borrow it without asking?

The Dreads gave the re-enactor bit away, unless you were going to do the "Battle of the Bean Fields". I only ever wear the dirk with evening dress so mostly sitting down with a little bit of country dancing thrown in, very different from out and about in the country. Funnily enough I'm also...

@Dreadhead I like the sporran, good for casual day wear and a little different. I like the idea of the two way belt loop on the Sgian Dhu as well; I use a Cold Steel Culloden (I know!) for a practical day wear with the kilt as well as a backup knife when in the bush. If not carried in my hose...

I use a hobo stove on my allotment and nobody has ever bothered me about it, so go for it! Plenty of tracks to find on an allotment as well, though seeing as the fox will happily walk within a couple of feet of you it's not quite as rewarding as it could be!

Just remember to step to one side when you do!
