Decided to grab a bit of a luxury item. Been thinking about getting one for a while after trying many other lighter chairs and them being crap in one way or another. Webtogs were doing them for £70 (Usually 80+) so pulled trigger. I did look for same OEM design on Aliexpress hoping to save a bit but couldn't find same design so went for the branded.

Alite Mayfly 2.0


Has anybody here used/using one of these? Seem to be very comfy judging from people have said.

Just purchased a stainless steel Mora Clipper for the blue child and a Victorinox Huntsman for the pink one. Safe in the knowledge that they will be more sensible than my work colleague who just impaled his thumb on my crook knife :slap:

A bit of an extravagance for me. Some titanium tent pegs, so I should be able to hammer them into the rocky soil on the coast without bending them, well that's the theory as well.

and also they're titanium, and light, and shiny in a dull kinda way - and they're titanium :).

I finally bit the bullet and ordered myself ESEE 6 (RAT 6) knife which I have been lusting after for a while as an alternative to my regular knife.

Also splashed out on a new thermarest, all season, as I am going back to ground dwelling for the summer and my diddy neoair small isn't quite long enough.

A wood and rawhide lantern, some food picks, a cloak brooch and some bits for a belt.

Sounds interesting, you have any pictures? Especially intersted in the lantern and would be good to have a peek.

Cheers for that, it's a beauty. Not cheap like you say but looks like it's worth it. I've been looking at ones with cow horn panes but I think yours would give a better light.

A pair of Freet Mudgrips to replace my Vivobarefoot trails which I have nearly worn the cleats off and they are beginning to fall apart.

If anyone would like to try a pair of barefoot style shoes but doesn't want to risk the cash investment on a new pair and is about a size 10.5-11 they can have my old ones for the cost of P&P

Scored a car trailer for £50 off of Gumtree :)

Needs a bit of work, just some seam sealing, fit a new light, refelctive triangles and source a spare wheel for it.

No need to fill the car to the brim now for the moot :rolleyes::lmao:
