Had a delivery from British Military Surplus (my fave supplier!) - bought a grade 2 windproof smock and Norgie top. Both turned up brand new and unissued in the bags - very pleased! Also got a 94 temperate smock and trousers which I intend to dye darker - will post pictures when I pluck up the courage

A pair of Black Diamond Trail Pro trekking arrived in the post the other day. Gonna be fun to try them out... Got to handle a pair of ordinary Trail poles before buying, but I found them a bit flimsy. Hence, I took a longshot and ordered the Pro-version. Do not regret that decision. Nothing flimsy about these and a very comfy grip. Only left to see if they feel just as comfy after a few days hiking.

Git you beat me to it
Been thinking of selling my RocketPak and getting a Sabre 45. Did you get the side PLCE pockets as well?
Ray Goodwins canoeing book. Really looking forward to getting my hands on it. Ordered from the man himself.

Just got a Skalmantas bivy bag. Smaller than an Army issue bag but I'm quite pleased with the way it is put together and can't want to try it out.

DD Bergen and Superlight tarp with lokblocks. Gotta start somewhere. Got a t-shirt thrown in but their XXL isn't so big. The bergen has now swallowed all of the stuff recommended for my upcoming "Bushcraft Essentials" course. I already had everything else on the recommended kit list except a formal water bottle. I use supermarket plastic bottles in a homemade belt holder for field archery, but they're only 750ml rather than the recommended 1 litre minimum....i will have a better look in Tesco before my course.
I didn't buy them today but they arrived today, ally my Gb buy items from midnighthound, honestly it's like Christmas lol
Thanks for all your time you put into these groupbuys mate

Bargain Pair of Tac Lite Pro Pants in Stone. Managed to get a BNWT pair off the EBay for £21.06 delivered. Bought these after a recommendation here. I rarely buy anything without looking at the real thing and I am really glad I did. A great pair of trousers even at the full price. So thank you to whoever it was that recommended them.

- Gear Aid - Sil Fix
Previous purchases of these have fell through because of no stock. Looks like they're out of stock everywhere. Had to buy 10 packs as job-lot to make sure I got one.
