Hopefully they'll be here before I head out to the TORM weekend

I'll be interested to hear what you think, I tried a Ti Goat Ptarmigan but found it too tight, I stuck with my MLD Superlight which has served me well. I've never fancied using the stake loops though, I'm frightened of ripping out a corner in the night, I guess the trick is to move inside rather than with.
10m of 20mm black grosgrain. The PayPal receipt said delivery is going to take a week, which is a cheek, but I don't really need it before then
It'll get there Al! I'm fully embracing the tasche this year, last year I couldn't wait to get rid of it. As I'm loving it again I'll try to rock it until the new year. The Bounder wax is good stuff, tempted to grab a handmade blonde buffalo horn moustache comb to top it all off now. Lur dee dur!
Took delivery of a montane extreme smock (from another member!) and a pair of down boots from the The Feather Company, London (no connection etc)- review coming soon.
I almost went with a Ti Goat myself, also looked at the MLD superlight but it was a little more than I was looking to spend
Just doing a quick write up of the Borah bivy now...

Just ordered one of these :-

Best price I've seen and free postage at the moment.
It's a Head Torch with a flip-up red filter. Handy for walking at night. I also remembers what level you have selected so you don't have to cycle through each level to switch off.
Cheers

I hope I've just got a real bargain Thermarest prolite - wanted one for ages and this was a real snip
Just been ebaying. I've been meaning to get a Jeweler's magnifying glass for ages so I can really get a good look at my edges I put on things (I've got no issues with my sharpening as I can split hairs with all my knifes). I managed to get a Pocket Jeweler's loupe magnifying glass 30X21MM for only £2.47 inc P&P.
Plus it'll be great for another thing to keep on me when out and about for fire starting being 30x, I haven't started a fire with a magnifying glass since I was a boy, a good 15+ years ago.

I picked it up from gbfmilitaria.com
He only had the one and thought it was worth a punt for £30.
Not tried it out yet,but appears to be bombproof,adjustable back,lots of pockets and has removeable aluminium back support similar to British army bergens.
One thing that is puzzling me is what is the purpose of the black metal piece with holes in at the bottom rear?
