Id be intesreted in the Swedish norgie and swade mate

I can give you a Dpm tarp for swap if you like the tillerman?

 

[Thetillerman71]

Hi Cowboy, think we done a mutually beneficial swap not too long ago or at least discussed it. What you thinking of swapping in return?

Chris

 

[Thetillerman71]

Hi Johnboe522, what make and condition is the tarp? what you looking for in return?

Chris

 

[cowboy]

Ok mate,.what would you say the value of the two would be?

 

[Thetillerman71]

Hi Cowboy, would suggest the top is in the region of a tenner and ill give you the suede as I had it free anyway. cant say fairer than that! people on this forum have always played very fair with me. If you drop me your E-mail address ill get a pic of the top for you so you've a better idea what it looks like

 

[cowboy]

Hi mate, I almost forgot about this.. sound fair to me and thankyou for the offer of the swade, very king of you. If you send me a list of things your after that are equivalent in price and ill have a good route around for them..

 

[Thetillerman71]

Hi Cowboy,

have updated my original list as below, maybe a book would be an equivalent value? what you got?

 

[adestu]

Was that the tent you and the missus used that weekend I met you?

Hi Adestu, Debbie is just someone I know..lol

Yes it is the same tent, we slept in it the first night then in the leaf litter shelter the second. Actually using it this weekend as I'm going away for 2 nights the other side of herefors. Its actually a really good tent with large porch for storage - even had a wheelbarrow of firewood in there not so long ago, sold by Vango as a 4 man but think 3 man would be a little more realistic. Problem I have is most stuff I do is either on my own or sometimes with one other so thinking maybe something a little smaller, very tempted with a Snugpack Scorpion or Bunker thus would have too raise some funds selling my existing tent first

 

[adestu]

well i can get you flint this weekend.

 

[Thetillerman71]

Im still interested in flint - its the future...lol' attended a flint knapping course about a month back and been making up my tool set

Hi.

I'll trade the books for a reindeer skin leather pouch (to keep future flint tools inside) Its quite a nice one..

 

[Thetillerman71]

Sounds a good plan, just off camping for the weekend but certainly sort something out next week
