What did you buy today?

[Biker]

Having missed out on a Maxpedition wallet in the Gift It On thread (not that Wildthing would have let it go anyway since he saw it second) I took myself off to a bootfair today for some retail therapy. And I got myself a Quicksilver wallet brand new for €1. That's about 80p in UK flavoured cash. Reesult I thought. It's nice enough for what I wanted.

I also got 5 DVDs for €10 including Charlton Heston in the film version of Jack London's Call of the Wild.
A sweet little drawknife that's destined for a little woods kit that I'm compiling.
And a few other items that had to be sneaked past SWMBO and squirraled away, before I got the "MORE KIT?" lecture.

All from Alpkit: -

Titanium myti-cup
Titanium stakes
Pass the pigs funny dice game.

All are for the big kid in me sleeping out. Including the pigs game. A good game for some isolated pubs where you spend the night with the locals looking at you with a mixture of mis-trust and "I'm gonna kill you" looks. Get drunk, shout loudly and play this game whilst arguing over every land of the pigs. Revenge for being made as welcome as a fart in a mini-submarine.First to 201, then 301 then 401 and so on until you get kicked out.

I hate to list al the stuff I have bought in the last month but I know it has equalled close to 500 quid this past month then in April it was about the same. I need to save up but I have a feeling a builder's fee, a car expense and an MLD trailstar could stop me saving up.

Nearly forgot I also bought on Friday afternoon an expander locking mech for a mountainking trekking pole. The above things were purchased about 11:56pm on Thursday and came about 10am today. Not too bad for a Royal Mail delivery.

Ok we didn't buy it today but a couple of weeks ago . At first glance it doesn't look very bushcrafty with it being ORANGE !!!!!! but when the kids are off on summer holidays we are going to take it over to the west coast of Scotland , throw in the tipi and head off to find some isolated beaches or islands to camp on .

We have been exploring some of the islands in the firth of forth and are planning to go camping on one of them over the holidays .
