I never imagined you with a beard, that's one of the things that I revel in here. I'm probably the opposite of what most people expect.

I'm coming now Hugh just to meet you......

Grumpy.....? Now my wife and daughter bought a bottle of MEAD from the Farmers' Market in town on Saturday so I'll bring it along and save some to test your grumpiness when you sniff it..:lmao: ...maybe taste it...?;) Don't have you down for an overnighter....so Saturday's the best bet........

I don't drink much since the op - the meds don't like it :(

Probably hence the grumpy but I don't need much of an excuse ;)

But hang on...bought...mead..

Burn the heretic.

If I remember I'll throw a few bottles of the last run of dry sack spiced mead in the car and you can taste how it should be rather than that shop bought sickly stuff. I knock it out in 10 gallon batches so we rarely run short :eek:

Not really sure what day we'll come if at all - just depends on timings, shooting opportunities, health etc. but <shrug> we'll see yah if we see yah

I'm busy Thursday and Friday evenings, so thought I'd get all my kit ready today...

...and then I thought I'd take a photo of it...

...and then I thought I'd post it up here.

Pathetic isn't it what some people will do to try and get a little bit of fame on the internet. :D

If I forget my CD, look for that green floppy hat!

OK - I've still got a way to go yet...but if I unpacked everything like you seem to have done for a kit inspection :)D ) it would look a lot more!!! :lmao:

I've got a 75L pack (not full yet) for 'base camp' and a 25L to cart around during the day. Once I get a tarp /bivvy bag (birthday coming up soon, so I'm hopeful) I can dump the big tent and hopefully get everything into one pack.

thats the Double header I assume

lol just reallised you probably have more n one

yes im interested in how a small double feels , if you have something closer to the proposed Cegga :D i thing you said the Cegga would be a bit smaller than your reeves ??

ive just regoround my Kukri to a Convex :yikes: (as Old Jimbos site hints at ) and im interested if thats better or worse as well its does feel sharper (if thats possible ) but that may just be a finer angle
