Top tip! I shall remember that one [emoji23] OLO www.onelifeoverland.com

There are many patches of forest around but none border onto common land as far as I am aware. It's all farmland. I guess the point I'm trying to get at is that in my 30 years of roaming these hills I've never seen one. Also the British Deer Society's last survey in 2016 would seem to confirm...

Gents, there ain't no deer in Caerphilly. Of that I am 100% certain. I may have over egged the distance somewhat but certainly there are no deer around here - still I'm probably a hood 20 miles away from the nearest. This is taken in an area not 30 mins walk from home and I live smack in the...

As a former SAR member myself I've used Keela extensively and never had any issues with them. It's a shame I cant get eyes on before trying but otherwise I think I'm going to take a punt on these heritage jobbies. OLO www.onelifeoverland.com

Definitively not deer. None within 50-100 miles of my location. I do know of a badger set though approximately a half mile away.

No sniff test conducted this time. As seen is all I have.

As per title really. Not much more to add. I suspect first pic is Badger or sheep and second maybe Fox (too big for hedgehog??) but am no expert. OLO www.onelifeoverland.com

I will take a look. Thanks. I tell you what I have seen now I'm looking around proper is the Keela Heritage line which look very promising. I know Keela are heavily involved with SAR and ES and indeed I use their mountain kit even to this day so I know the quality and customer service is top...

Excellent kit description and list too btw. Sounds like you have far more fun than us in UK :) Re the sub - Nice one. Thanks you kindly sir. Hoping to push more content to You Tube this year than the blog but I will keep them both updated. OLO www.onelifeoverland.com

Fjallraven style alternatives please. As ex-sar my mountain kit is good. So yes more camping in the woods style trousers I'm looking for really. As I say I don't begrudge the fjallraven prices as they are quality kit but I like to have options also. I also use a pair of dewallt work trousers...

Thanks all for the suggestions. I created this last night after a few beers and missed one key words from the title which I have now added! Trousers, I'm just interested in trousers not my whole wardrobe but thanks again for suggestions so far [emoji2960] OLO www.onelifeoverland.com

I don't begrudge paying for quality kit so that isn't the reason for this post. I do however like to have options. So what alternatives are out there? I've seen the Helikon Tex trousers and clothing in general is good stuff. I also use a pair of Dewallt work trousers. They are brilliant hard...

Hi all, Recently I've been thinking about the size of my 'daysack' which isn't really a daysack as such. By that I mean, short of a bed roll and food it always has the same stuff in it whether I'm out for a few hours or a few days. Being ex-army and a former Search and Rescue operator, even...

Now we're talking. They look the business. Thanks. OLO www.onelifeoverland.com

Cool, thaks guys. Just wanted to confirm my initial ID. He's a big one too. OLO www.onelifeoverland.com

True. Hybrid? Looks like one but no smell? OLO www.onelifeoverland.com

Thanks all. Sounds as though I should have thought of a better title. This maybe: 'What does everyone find to be the best multi purpose leather glove for general work around camp and handling hot pans around the fire' OLO www.onelifeoverland.com

My boy looking radiant in the Spring sun shine! OLO www.onelifeoverland.com

Looks like wild onion OLO www.onelifeoverland.com

Seen today. At first I thought a copper beech but then wondered if the leaves were not quite red enough. It's a big one whatever it is. It was the size that stopped me first of all then I looked up and saw the stunning colours. OLO www.onelifeoverland.com
