Will arrive today by the looks of it. Can't grumble with that... I only ordered it yesterday!
 
A pair of Rogue RB-5's, my christmas present from the girlfriend early I know but my twelve year old Treztas have died! Hoping these live up to my expectations :confused:
 
My latest purchases have been - 10m of Waxed Cotton and some thread.
Busy making myself some more gear - All Weather Blanket (Waxed Cotton backed Hungarian Army Blanket) that also serves as a basic bedroll, a Watchcoat, a cloak and a seat pad :) and a Waxed Cotton 1960s SAS smock inspired jacket ... but I need to go to town and pick up a zip and some buttons before I finish that.
Winter is coming! :)
 
My latest purchase was a Unicom head torch for a tenner it's a bargain slapped in a few triple A's and left it turned on got 23 hours use before the batteries failed

Stanley No 6 Foreplane. Seen here with my No 4 Woden smoother. Don't really use the little 4 as its a slightly nowt nor something size.

The 6 has seen some action but is basically sound, needs a front knob and screw and the rear tote has been glued up.
Can get the tote, knob and screws kit cheap off Ebay.

Still, it only cost about a fiver (got several other tools at the same time and paid fifteen quid for the lot so its kind of hard to judge for each individual tool) and I have several irons for it already. Tempted to buy a Veritas PM-v11 tool steel iron and Veritas cap iron for it as well.
 
ordered a woobie yesterday and picked up 2 prs of thinsulate quilted trousers for £8 and a bear grills hardback book(bear grylls living wild the ultimate guide to scouting and fieldcraft) not bad for £1 happy days
 
A harness, lead, collar, bowls and a lurcher to go with
