    Customs/tax?

    American retailers sell at a basic price that then add on any tax. THIS might be useful.

    Vehicle tool kit

    This is pretty obvious for a Landrover but For those of us who use two wheel drive domestic vehicles I would include a spare wheel! My Scoda minivan came with a canister of gloop but luckily they have kept the floor pressing where the spare used to go and the space where the jack went. It...

    Wanted Leather pouches

    Not exactly what you want. Any use? “No” won’t offend! :)

    Planning permission

    Pale grey is apparently “on trend”! White is cheapest. Personally I wouldn’t do either. One of my daughters moved into a house that had brilliant white walls with trite sayings stencilled in black script everywhere. It took wallpaper to cover those walls. Another buyer might have liked them...

    THAT’S the problem. The rest of us wouldn’t notice down the pub. Have you ever been to a karaoke party? :emoji_disappointed:

    Utility Knives and Multitools – Are they Legal for Camping?

    I don’t understand this debate. Totally agree. Nothing has changed.

    Planning permission

    I have no knowledge of property markets in your patch but: I recently had the roof on my house replaced. It cost me £30,000. I’d estimate that it cost the roofing firm less than half that. They seemed to have a fast track to authorities and inspectorate. If a developer buys your house they...

    Normark Super Swede?

    This must have been a later development. The Superswede shown in the Malcberry catalogue above has the same hard plastic scales as my big Swede.

    Yay!!!! Me too! “How Strange” :lmao: For those not familiar:- One of The Hu’s anthems: Yuve Yuve Yu means “how strange” but has overtones of regret - a bit like an aggressive version of deary deary me :) (Link deleted - off topic sadly, it really is an anthem!) Strings are no longer me...

    I certainly don’t think this at all. My opinion differs from the majority and I defend it. That is all. The quotation from the Desiderata indicates my take on “Nature” and shows, in part, where I’m coming from. The expression “deary deary me” Is a sadness at the thought that music might be...

    Roxon system?

    thanks for this!!!!! If I were to adopt a multitool / multiblade, this would be way out in front of the tools that I know about. BUT LIKE @TLM I’d like to hear about one in use. At least the blade and the long flat screwdriver. My instinct would be to make a single tool handle and carry a...

    Sacrilegious Kent pattern re-shape and hang

    Nothing sacrlegious about it. You’ve suited it to purpose and your own satisfaction. It looks smart.

    Normark Super Swede?

    I suspect that this TBS is superior to the original if only that the micata handle is solid rather than the hollow plastic of the latter. Also the brass liner seems to extend the full width of the handle whereas in the original it occupied a central groove only 20mm wide leaving the rest void...

    Wow! I knew that music was powerful but I had no idea that it switched off the sounds of nature.
