Not got mine yet either, but no rush.
Can you possibly confirm though that one has been sent out to me?
Cheers

Hi Jack,
Mine has not been delivered as yet, could it be the horses needed watering on the long journey up here or is it the start of christmas deliveries.

Stumpy, I reckon your postie may be in bed at this time of the night! 
Only joking, I was hoping mine would turn up tomorrow/today, you know what I mean!! I'm wondering if it will now. Jack, did you send Bisamrattes' with mine aswell?

Two bags arrived today, cheers Jack. :You_Rock_
Did you send Bisamratte his bag directly in the end?
And one other thing, what's the bit of string with the clasp on the end for? I was thinking keys on and then throw the lot in the bag making it easy to retrieve them, but I may be wrong.

I still have an original bag complete with smelly gas mask and filter....It makes the dogs go mad!
The string goes around behind you to tie the bag to your torso to stop it acting like a pendulum when you lean forward...The string ties onto the little ring on the opposite side. This is what I was told and shown by the lady who gave me my original bag when I was 13. She took all the morphine and other bits and bobs out as these were not suitable for me to have! Also this is how they are shown being worn in photos of WW2.
I used it for years as a 'piece' bag (lunch) but when people started to collect this type of thing I washed it and put the mask back and the tin helmet and they live under the stairs. They sometimes get taken into school by my children as a curio.

OK then, I was wrong!! I actually did try that but thought it was a stupid idea, they wouldn't have put it on for that! It does seem like a sensible idea thoug and does stop the bag swinging when you bend over. I'll probably just put my keys on like I said!!
Hey Spamel I like the keys idea. At least you don't have to fumble in the bottom to find them.

So your isn't getting sent direct to you? See what Jack says, I could send you one of mine and then when the other one gets here I'll just keep that one. I got one for the missus aswell but she says she doesn't need it at the moment, I think she wants it for the summer.

I'll see what jack says, if he still has it I have asked him to post it to my parents so I can pick it up at Christmas (only one and a half weeks to go

Hi Jack, no bag yet though xmas + swedish postal service is not a good combo. I pm'd you if there is a tracking number on the shipment that i could use to hit the postal services here with?
