I should have bought some of that stuff JF, after being around the scummy gits coughing their heads off in Hexham without covering their mouths in the slightest..... got a vango cookset, that celotape looking repair stuff for snugpak type jackets and 4 post war (I think) beer steins mit lids still, oh and a microwave for heating heat pads (funnily enough) for the cats, who live outside in a converted kennels (allergic to 'em see) plus the dog would eat them ;-) .
I was when I was a kid. Cats would set me off in a heartbeat while I slept with the dog.
IIRC it's not the actual cat itself that most people are allergic too; it's the saliva, and since cats incessantly lick themselves, the exposure is more intense.

yup.....bit of a pain as I like cats....I could do with having a cat flap into the loft to sort out the opfor mice bde....
Am alergic to cats not dogs. As I understand it also its the saliva thats the problem. My eyes get all inflamed and I sneeze. Dogs no issue atall.

Sawyer mini filter....
...made the mistake of buying a cheap ebay unbranded hand-pumped pocket sized filter last year and, despite having never used it, I wish I'd known about the Sawyer and just bought that instead. With p&p it was actually more expensive than the Sawyer.
I decided I'd rather write the old one off as a life-lesson in doing my research before buying stuff. I'd rather have a product that I know will work than field test another unkown device using my family as Guinea pigs...

A new Portable Power Bank...
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00F5Q4F0U?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00
I've had a 'New Trent' power bank for about 3 years now but it's kinda big, heavy, it does about 3-4 charges for my smartphone but won't charge my tablet at all. The new one is 22400mAh, has 3 USB slots and will reportedly give a smartphone about 13 full charges & a tablet around 4 or 5. It's also a much smaller size.
So far I've fully charged 3 smartphones, my tablet and a set of bluetooth headphones without even one of the 4 power level indicator lights going out. I used my old one a fair bit, not just for powering up in the woods but giving my phone a boost while out travelling by public transport. This one will be my new constant companion as I'm really impressed with it so far.
Mine arrived today. Thanks for the link.

Welcome bud...hope you enjoy it as much as I'm enjoying mine.

It's only half the capacity advertised, roughly 12,000mAh not 22,400mAh just like many of the powerbanks unfortunately. Some even put weights in them to make them feel heavier and illusion of having more capacity.
That may be the case, but it certainly gets many good reviews (Outside Amazon as well), so as long as it does the job. Time will tell. But if that is the case (12,000 Ah) how do they get away with the false advertising?
So far I have charged my Samsung Galaxy S5 once and my Sony Xperia Tablet once and the unit is still showing fully charged, so I am very happy with the purchase.
