Walking dogs is my job so I'm out a lot ! Waxed flat cap , synthetic compression top , high necked fleece , Barbour Cowen Commando jacket, work type trousers , merino wool socks , Lundhags Bielne high boots , whistle , poo bags , Boker plus XS knife and rolly tin

Thanks guys , some great ideas there ! MSR alpine looks great but some other alternatives look good too , cheers y'all

Ha just saw your reply and I actually watched that video last night !

They look promising , I could cut the handle down for compactness ! Cheers

Not sure if this is the right place but ! I'm after a decent frying pan that would hold enough for a large breakfast or a good sized stew , it needs to be open fire friendly too , what do you guys use ?

Enjoyed it too , lovely scenery

A little heads up for a film I've never seen but have noted mentioned on here several times in the past . The Hunter , William Defoe in the Tasmanian wilds on the trail of the Tasmanian tiger ! Seen much debate about the pack he uses on old threads . BBC2 10.35pm

My idye poly arrived the other day and I decided not to use it , mainly because of a lack of a big enough pot to use and also because I quite like the contrast of the stitching. Altogether I'm really pleased with the results with just the idye natural and I hope yours is ok and still wearable ...

Thanks that's probably best , also the pics I've took make the pattern look too light ! Its far darker really

I'll take some but I'm not a full member so not sure how I'd post

Must say I'm pretty impressed so far and I think a final go with the poly will get it as good as its going to get ! As for dying the washing machine ,well that would be more than my life's worth !!

Done it twice using the idye natural (looking quite good) and ordered idye poly off fleabay and will try that aswell when it arrives , not tried the stove top method as can't find a pot big enough so went the washing machine way

Smock arrived today, perfect condition and fits great , not bad for £9 including delivery ! Now to get some dye , think I'm going to get 2 lots of idye poly brown and see how it goes

Aye , too many times unfortunately !
