Thanks, normally a bit outside my budget tbh, but worth every penny in this case I think.

Lol this was at my mothers house a few years back! sadly the bbq'd food did not look quite as good! ;)
 
Me last week before I broke my leg, with the new Hudson Bay 3.5 point blanket and frost river isle royale pack (technically Christmas presents :)):

That's some generous chrimbo presents mate.

Not so good news about the broken leg how did you manage that?
Hope it heals up well....

Certainly am a lucky lad :).

It was a good natured tackle gone wrong in a PE football match, a shame really as footballs not my thing but as it was in school I was having a game and then bang I've snapped my tibia 2 days before a 3 night trip!

:lmao: that's what my my mam said!

And you must be right John, we played rugby In PE for about 2 months a year back and I didn't get injured!

Yep - a nice safe game!
All I ever broke playing Rugby were - my neck, my nose, and my ribs!
Never broke either leg!

That's a great length of cordage you've made there John :)!
I love rugby when the players get battered and just carry on but the footballers fall easy and wait for a stretcher if they have sprained their ankle! I got a hand up and hobbled around just after it happened! Wouldn't fancy a broken neck though :)!

The cordage is brambles stripped of their leaves and thorns then braided.
I never noticed the broken neck at the time - it was picked up in a non related X-ray some 10 years later ... a flake knocked of one of the vertebrae and safely fused ... but out of position! It could have been interesting if I had moved wrongly at the time though!

It was at a camp with little kit me and my dad did back in the summer, with a survival bag for a tarp, built our own structure, don't worry, we left no trace :).
