    The man's a genius. There is no "bad" Pratchett book, only one or two not as brilliant as the rest. His strength is in his characterisation; I'm sure I've met a few of 'em

    Bushcraft knife_what's really mean?

    I'll echo the other comments, it's a knife that I'm happy to use for bushcraft; it could be convex, scandi, flat ground etc. In my case never more than 4" bladed though.:)

    Nice bit of kit. Still as tight in the sheath as it was when I got it too. I tend to carry it in a pocket though as I don't get on with the belt loop affair.

    Sun based Insomnia?

    Nice cold North wind blowing on this part of the country, so no bother sleeping. As for the light, we've still got blackout curtain liners from when I was working unsocial hours and needed to sleep during the day.

    Helicopter dropped in....

    Most, if not all, of the pilots are ex services. IIRC, they need 2000 hours in the air to get the job in the first place.
