We will be there.

It will probably be on the 10th , we will have a beer and plan a walk and brew up for later in the month..

Go and see your local blacksmith they will make you one. I made my own from some metal rod.

Gelert do a sideways compression bag for £2.99. I already had a waterproof bag for my winter sleeping bag but did not want a compression bag that squashes from the top and as Tony says ' makes a beach ball '. I wanted a side squash one so the bag fitted on my North Face waterproof duffle bag ...

Go to your local pound shop and get a laptop case.

Hi, I am interested in the buffalo please. Is it still up for grabs? Regards, Lyn

I will be there.

I use 'John James ' saddlery needles. They are very good. They make needles for just about every use. Make sure when sewing that you pull the needles through straight as any sideways leverage or wiggling will encourage things to break.

Tuesday 19th July , 7:30pm. The usual pub in Fordwich. See you there.

I agree with the other guys , going 'natural' to the detriment of the horses welfare seems daft to me. Do they get wormed with modern wormers? Ordinary flies are bad enough but horse flies are horrible things. You can get fly repellent collars that are natural ingredients. Also fly traps to set...

I have one for kayaking and camping. It's great. Mine was £16ish. I cut some holes in tennis balls for soft ground. But got some walking stick rubber feet from Wilcos that stay on there all the time as the feet it comes with are about as fat as the average pencil. The new ones go over the...

I would use Hydrophane especially for the inside as it will soften the leather but wont be greasy for when you put your gear in it. Followed by several applications ( over a few days) of saddle soap, on the outside. If you are going to a tack shop to get leather stuff, get some plaiting...

Crickey, I am with mrcharly on this. What a load of rubbish, when was that written? When people had grooms to spend all day cleaning tack? Never get your leather gear soaking wet (unless you get caught out in the rain) I also grew up with horses and have been cleaning tack forever. Just clean...

There is a foam (and material ) suppliers in a village close to me, Challock . A Mr Elliot runs it. Give them a call, I could post it for you. There used to be another foam supplier in another local village near Faversham whom we used for boat cushions, but they closed a couple of years ago...

I have a couple of those, one maker is Handiware. I think another was Ideal Express. Well done for rescuing them, I still use mine for a brew when out on a bimble.

Try herringbone tape , you will find it easier to fold in half.

I have a Yak kallista and a Crewsaver kasmira both 50N ,both have a small pocket. I have added a small camera pouch onto the waist strap at the side for my waterproof camera and a few odds and ends. Make sure that yours has enough adjustment so it fits when you are wearing a tshirt in summer...

If you follow the link in post #2, under the heading 'cleaning old tools' it says never ( in capitals) use an angle grinder. I know that you were asking about sharpening but seems not to be a good idea. Good link by the way.

I don't know if it was original to the canvas but it is a similar green. Not the most comfortable bit of kit I have ever kipped on. I put an airbed in instead.
