*The* Gift-It-On Thread

[Biker]

Right, it's been well over 24 hours since I offered that old British Army knife and none of you ingrates are up for it, so we'll call that one a damp squib shall we? So here's what's on offer as an alternative:

Another Army item but this time a French Army rucksack.

It's a 40ltr sack with 2 large cargo pockets at each side, another flat one on the back and another canvas one between the shoulder straps, there;'s even another inside the main storage area.

The lid flops over completely and could take a rolled up sleeping bag under the flap easily enough.

It's made from that waterproofed canvas but I wouldn't trust it to keep out the moisture for too long. All buckles and flaps are in good condition, no tears that I can see that could fail in the future.

A real bargain... since it's free.

Run a google image search for French Army rucksack and you'll see more results and pictures of it. As I said though this version has the side cargo pockets.

Any takers? I'm on my knees here people

I'd like to take that please if it's still going

 

[Biker]

YES!!!!!! Sold to the man above with the disappearing without a trace tendancies (as in Lord Lucan)

Pm me your address details I'll wang it off in the post asap. You'll need to put something up of course. Hopefully you know how the system works for this gift it on thread.

Sheesh nothing like pressure eh? It's easy to accept something but quite another when it comes to giving something away.

LOL, Thanks Biker, That'll do nicely for me as a weekend rucksack, Just what i've been looking for

Thanks P.M. on the way

I'd like to put up A 5 L.E.D Brushed steel lantern. It stands approx 16cm high, and takes 3 AA batteries, I've had it last a Good 5 hours with Duracells, it also gives out a good light.

Cheers

Have patience young Jedi! - not everyone is as addicted as me to be on the site almost 24/7, most people have lives outside BCUK and anyway the 'weekend' crowd' will be along soon. If I didn't have a similar lamp I would have snapped it up myself!

current offer -

A 5 L.E.D Brushed steel lantern. It stands approx 16cm high, and takes 3 AA batteries, I've had it last a Good 5 hours with Duracells, it also gives out a good light.

Right it's nearly been 24 hours and not a sniff, Guess i'm gonna have to up the give away, I'll do it now because i'm off on the lash shortly.

As well as the original gift of the lantern, I'll throw in a Head torch ( l.e.d) It's my backup to my backup, It takes aaa this one though.....and wait for it, I'll throw in a pack of batteries for each.


Happy Bidding

Have a good evening all

I wouldn't do anything for at least another 24 hours Lucan. You've already upped your offer once so have some patience

What's you've offered so far is very generous and someone will come along shortly no doubt who will appreciate your gift.

Morning All,

We seem to have stalled somewhat, So i'd like to remove the original offers of the lamps and replace them with this.

Meths Burner, Never been used in anger.

Come on lets get this great thread moving.

Cheers

Lucan
