A nice tripod to go over the fire. About 1.2m high with legs made from square steel twisted into a spiral all the way up. Don't have a picture yet though I'm afraid.

missed this thread!

i got a buffalo shirt copy (pertex and pile still, now waterproofed too), a sas carry smock (loadsa pockets, also now waterproofed and de-vecro'ed), four pairs of my fav socks, bridgedale 3 season. (4 pairs for £30, bargain find) and a polartec HH fleece

the sas smock is multipurpose as i will also use for festivals where i estimate i will be able to fit best part of 14x500ml cans of lager in it (combined with my caterpillar combats, which hold 8x500ml cans) will equate to 11 litres lager carrying capacity, bearing in mind i tend to fall over after 3 litres, i think my carrying capacity is now overkill

Brilliant - I reckon you need elbow and knee pads in the smock and trews for when you hit the ground ;-)

I for a few books, Mykel Hawke's Green Beret Survival Manual, actually a fine book, well written, well bound and a bargain too boot! I also recieved "Jungle SNAFUS and Remedys" which is an interesting read, pretty much about how the US military develops an item that works well, discontinues it and then reinvents a much less useful version that weighs more and costs more. Mostly related to tropical kit items and uniforms. As a 20 year veteran, I can relate to everything written within this book. Recommended reading to anyone spending prolonged time in the tropics, particularly in the military.

I also got a Light my Fire Army steel version 2.0, a Marrtinni M571 knife and a NATO flask and crusader cup. All together a nice Christmas!

I suppose she can be considered bushy related as she'll be accompanying me on walks in the countryside

Her name is Suki and she's a Saluki/Springer Spaniel cross. Currently all legs but growing fast

Otherwisw known as a handful......that said, with the right training she'll be a fantastic bushy companion

I got, tianium spork, 500 ft of assorted colours paracord, timex expedition chronograph and lots of rum and lots of vodka....definatley bushy related lol.

I was just given one by a friend returning from NZ. Those are warm!

I didn't get any other bushy pressies, but FC was good to my son in that dept., with a DD hammock/tarp combo and a nice sharpening stone. I'm not allowed to use any of them!

The marino & possum beanie is great for people like me with no natural protection on top
