What did you buy today?

Thought I'd give you folks a heads up. The rucksack I bought (see posting above) the item has been relisted, obviously he has more than one but it's currently up for grabs for under a tenner with free P&P. Bargain I think. Obviously this could mean you end up bidding against someone here but it's a risk.

Still haven't received my one as yet but I only bought it the other day and it has to come from Korea

You can find it here:

So did anyone from this Parish nab that rucksack? Just had an email from my mother to tell me my one arrived in the UK today, whcih seems to me very fast postage all the way from Korea. Once I get my hands on it I'll review it as promised. I just hope it's a s good as it looks in the pix.

Arrived yesterday. Badlands Magnetic Everything Pocket. Closure is by rare earth magnets ~ a bling thing but, so far, it seems quite effective :D .
Two choices of colour scheme, neither of which are solid :eek: .

Bought myself a harmonica yesterday. A Hohner Big River. Don't know why but I've always fancied having a go at playing one. Life's too short to not bother trying stuff, eh?


Sent from whatever the coolest gadget is these days.

You should probably start a separate thread for this.

Take a look at the JetBoil, Trangia and similar systems to see how they make most use of limited heat.

A Carinthia Tropen 200 and an impulse buy , a non-goretex breathable fabric bivi bag 240x100 cm in olive and flecktarn for 60 euro from ASMC.de. We'll see just how good it is but it's fully enclosable, a good size and price.

Just been on the DD website, and left having ordered: Whoopie slings, soft karabiners, tree huggers and 10m of dyneema....seriously, I just went to look!

Oh well, now thinking what I can sell to cover the cost of a new hammock... :)

Black Dylon, in washing machine dye.
Recently bought a Dutch Smock with the removable gortex and warm liners. Am changing the DPM to black (I know it will be a ghost black DPM).
Will then be individually proofing the gortex liner, and the smock to improve its waterproofness.

The box in wash is much better than the packet as well.
