What did you buy today?

[Paul_B]

Not quite today but I recently bought a Didrikson insulated shell jacket for my 2 year old boy. It's a nice sober blue colour with retro reflective rectangles across the back and outside of the upper sleeve. It has a snow skirt with a zip under it to accept the separate trousers to match it (yet to get them). It was a great price and one of those well designed pieces of clothing that gets you wishing they did an adult's version. Especially since it has a hood design that would not look out of place on an adult's jacket. Pretty boring eh? Well it's been at least 2 years since I bought kit for myself.

One of these camo nets for shooting. Been looking for a cheap one for a while, and the reviews seem posotive. just need patience as it is being shipped from China. http://www.amazon.co.uk/NuoYa005-Wo...=UTF8&qid=1420501154&sr=1-2&keywords=camo+net

Edit: It was £7.81 with free delivery when I ordered it. It went up to £9.99 within a day.

My obsession with all things swiss continues! This is what I call retro

Mixed with something a bit newer from OneGreenBottle lol

Ordered a new SAK Huntsman @ dark o'clock last night, to replace one my father gave me many, many years ago and I lost a while back; went with HH and opted for standard free delivery, and it arrived today

You just can't fault that company, they always get it right.................

andyxedos, what decade are they from? I like the leather straps et al apart from the plasticy looking bottle cover....p.s did you get any of that stuff from that link I put up for swiss stuff?

Today I bought (from a v wet and dull Keswick) a roll mat to cut up for a seat, a web sling for making an abseling harness, a pot holder thingymabob for the storm kettle and a ruff neck warmer thingymabob for the whippet. I did spy a few paraffin stoves but for double what they are worth from an antiques shop so didn't bother.

35 litres of vinyl nastiness. Houses a 32' Irvin 'chute as if it were intended and the water resistant, completely unpadded, rectangular block should make for more easy transport.

Did the Czech authorities go through a phase of purposely punishing their troops?

Treated myself to The Ultimate Hang ebook for my kindle, at £3 it'd be rude not to

I got my hands on an Optimus 8R, that I will test during this weekend.
I also got the FireMaple FMS 116 from China (AliExpress @ $18). It generates 3500W and weighs in at 70 grams.
Unboxed it and fired it up. It seems to work fine, but that is indoors. If it works in moderate winds, it appears to be great value for the money.

My son found me a similar cooker to the fire maple in a charity shop in Banbury for the princely sum of 50p. Just got to get a tank of gas tomorrow and see if it was money well spent

I fancied this exact model - the 17.5" 800g one rather than the 15" 600g or 20" 900g hatchets in the Agdor range. How do you find it?
