More Parasols, and deer.

Wet! It’s been chucking it down, last night and this morning and really smashing it down at the moment. Still, I have dug out an unworn Snugpak poncho that I’d forgotten about, and in typical ‘me’ fashion already bought a Helikon one to toggle up with the Swagman roll. Now I’m at that...

Regarding 3.7v lithium ions, they shouldn’t be discharged below about 2.8v. They’re unlikely to catch fire used singly with a normal draw. Problems arise with high draw situations like vapes or powerful torches, and also if the batteries are being run in series to increase voltage. Then a weak...

No worries mate, there’s something else coming your way and it’s going to incur costs to and from. I’ll put the straps in with it.

If it’s any good to you I’ll bung the tan one in too? I got it for a green faced Seiko Chronograph and it just doesn’t look good, the Seiko is nicer with a NATO on it. Might look nice on something with a black dial?

@gra_farmer I’ll be a few days posting, I’ve got a bug that’s zapped my energy, it’s all I can do to let the dog out. I’ve also double checked the lug width as I have a tan version in 22mm. Lug width in the Steeldive is actually 20mm so I apologise profusely for misleading you. I remember now...

No water ingress at all. Only person I know this happen to hadn’t tightened the crown tightly and went from hot sun into a swimming pool. The watch is still fine but there was a bit of condensation inside.

There’s a cull going on too, but generally the herd splits into a stag and his does. They do still herd though.

Lume is awesome too.

Of course Gra, sorry to miss the reply. @Brizzlebush Watch is a Steeldive SD1970, absolute steal at the AliExpress Official Steeldive store, can come down as low as £50 or less, Seiko movement, a true homage to the Captain Willard of Apocolypse Now fame. The original Seikos run into the £1000’s.

I need to vary the walk a bit, I’m liking the park because it rutting season and the deer are everywhere. Still a lot of these about, the Shaggy Parasols, and @Chris talking of smelling colours, I found a couple of these little Liberty Caps.

Vango Nova, or Scafell Plus. Both 3 man, plenty room for the dog, lots of porch and on the Scafell lots of indoor space. Just up the pegs, if they’re like the bits of bent coat hanger that came with my Banshee they won’t hold a tent down on Lundy. Seeing both at under £200, good time of year for...

This has faded a bit, after only a year and Barton have replaced it. You’ll see the fade in the pics but it’s still cool and if you haven’t tried an Elite then definitely do, they’re so much nicer than thick silicone bands. Interior colour is black.

Nice. I have the Tool Check for general purpose stuff in the campervan and it’s superb. Quite why @Jared had to post a whole catalogue to gullible fools like me who make up usage scenarios very easily, I have no idea. :lmao:

Could you edit the OP to sold mate, this knife came up before and I missed it and thought another or the same had appeared? Just hit Edit and go up to the Sold banner and you’ll see a selection. Cheers.

Another Civivi. This one is a peach. I chose the button lock to allow the light to shine throught the cutouts in the liners rather than the lock bar of the liner lock. It flips open and drops closed beautifully, but I’ve decided button locks aren’t for me because I already have an Elementum...

Should you fancy a play with the washed Ti Stella Premium, gimme a shout and I don’t mind getting it over. I get what you say about OHO, but you’ll forgive it quickly. That blue looks good on the Lite, one of the reasons I’m hitting the Civivis and Petrified Fish is the colour choices. For £20...

Anyone know the worn brown one? Just for interest, I see a lot on the chalk Downs but not to sure what they are, apart from past their best. The white thing I thought was a puffball but it’s got a weird stem and I’d be interested to know this one too. Found in Petworth Park, soil is light brown...

In the post today mate, cheers.

All sorted and on its way Geoff, many thanks to you. I reckon you’re gonna love the thing, can’t work out why it hung around so long, I love mine. Well, both of them. There’s one in the van as a summer blanket and poncho and one here to chuck on the bed on hot nights or wear under a Snugpak...
