I'm still fairly new so not got that much to clear out :)

Amongst the goodies:

Modded and dyed XL size Swedish smock (overhead type)
A kuhkri
Modded 58 pattern waterbottle pouches and one modded kidney pouch
Un-used Swedish army Trangia set
British army shelter sheet
Survival bag (poly type, printed on) 1 x orange 1 x green
44 pattern waterbottle, mug, home-made lid for mug and 2 x covers (from Silvermans)
West German army poncho

That's about it for now :D

Alright Neil, I could well be after that 58 patt. waterbottle pouch depending on how you've modded it. If it will still take a waterbottle and cruisader set up I'm after that mate.
 
I will confirm for definite whether I can go on Monday, in the middle of a system installation at the moment and I may have to work the odd weekend here and there to get it done in time.

I've crammed things into some tight 'oles before Gertrude but I'm pretty certain it won't go :rolleyes:

I'll pm you if I have something suitable :)

Cheers fella, I always thought they'd fit the standard pouches but could well be wrong! Thanks for the insight on how squaddies spend their spare time...
 
Am thinking of putting together a Bushcraft starter kit to flog on e-bay... But then got to thinking.. I should be polite and offer it to you guy's first (I know you've all probably got loads of stuff already, but it would be rude not too!).
Some of you might know someone just starting out, or maybe bringing along a first timer?

Consisting of :-

1. 3/4 size Bergen
2. A green surplus/Raw vintage Anorak Large (worn once, cost 35 quid new)
3. DD Tarp (old type)
4. Nato water bottle
4. Hexi stove
5. Bag of Birch bark
6. Blue handled Mora
7. packet of 550 Paracord
8. Tinder box/tin

All of this for just £70.00 (there you go)

p.s. I know not to put the Mora on e-bay!
 
See you Saturday PM after a quick look at the Outdoor show
I'll bring a few blades and bits. I'm having a go at some draw knifes as well

Kev, are you staying overnight now or just popping in for a while?
Just stopping until the evening so we can meet a few peeps and put faces to names, as the son in law has work the next day :( and I'm going to my local Cambridgeshire meet at Little Abbington, Cambridge on the Sunday :rolleyes:
Just realised the list is for stopovers. In the immortal words of Homer "DOH!"
goodjob
 
AccuWeather says between 7 and 15 degrees C (and dry) for the meet.
I hope it stays that way, fingers crossed!

PREPER........... :)
