    Wanted basket-hilt broadsword, dirk & sgian dhu

    I think there is an armourer making the likes of what you want in Edinburgh. They were doing their own more refined version of the MOD survival knife. If you want original, you'll likely pay for a new car or have to raid an estate/castle. They usually have them stuck up on the wall.

    Carnation Condensed Milk

    Filofaxes

    I’ve used a Filofax mainly the A5 size convenient for A4 but small enough to be handy. I used to look at all the Filofax inserts but rarely used them beyond the address book. I have the Levenger circa system, same idea but a different binding system. I have a Rite in the Rain ‘Filofax’ with...
