Definitely 100% don’t get a Peugeot they use wet belts instead of dry timing belts nothing but trouble I’ve had with mine, it’s the same with Vauxhall. Any fords dam difficult to get parts for them these days. Even the fords parts garage near me, said none of them would drive a ford anymore...

I think the berghaus roc green was around early 1980s. I bought mine 1984/5. The DPM Versions came out (guessing) when all soldiers started buying their own kit to replace the issued rubbish so late 80s or early 90s. There are Falkland war photos with them carrying the roc and crusader in green...

It isnt the military one, berghaus did this version in dpm when we all had to buy decent kit. The issue rucksack at the time were the para Bergen or the 58 ptn large pack. The next issued were the plce in green I bought a roc rucksack in green with the same pouches. In fact it was my first...

For £4 a bargain needed or not. I reckon. I have the 50litre rocketpac used since my Munro sadly left me after 23 years

Good find, had the smaller version for years

For want I do I carry a mora and a penknife. Sometimes on hillwalking a penknife only. That has snapped in the past but at least I can use the other smaller blade till it’s replaced

Must take note here. There is a certain pigeon using my car as a toilet and has done for months. War has been declared. Trouble is I feed the birds in the back garden and it’s emptied at the front

Don’t know much about that one, thanks. Got plenty of time to research this one as well before I buy at the right price.

Rustling would be annoying for me as well. Hoping to drive to a shop an hour or so away when I get a day off and try them both. Using a softie but want something warmer and the new Snugpak’s coats just don’t cut it in the fit and quality.

Looking at saving for one of the coats above for next winter for hillwalking nights and stops Any one got experience of either of the two above. I use buffalo on the move and don’t like down jackets struggled with keeping these dry.

Don’t. Bother it will just dirty on the next trip out

As mentioned already my choice would be jerky and boiled eggs

I would get them again if I could get the size right

Which ones did you get? It is a good make, hardwearing and decent prices

Do see the point with wearing them hate my daysacs with sweaty backs but if I got caught by my ex army mates wearing webbing my life wouldn’t be worth living, in P takes. Used to love my tropical trousers when walking years ago. Nowadays can wear a JHW only which is a brilliant piece of kit and...

Got the Revolution Race RVRC GP Pro Trousers. I am using them just not perfect sizing. I did also buy the Bigfoot pile fleece which is roomy but I prefer that in coats.

I have recently they are good style wise but and it’s a big but, the sizing is not good (just didn’t match me) and they are online only. If you can try them on great, recommend them. Mine are too long and they are suposed to be my length, same with the waist.

Fizan compact walking poles, need to keep hillwalking but protect my knees.

Agreed, like my first post no1 lower thigh length easy to make shorter if needed

Ham and pea’s pudding bun, Even better if you can get a stottie
