erm................... reciepts assorted cards for everything under the sun, and not a shred of anything remotely bushcrafty. The wallet goes to the bottom of the bag when I go on my bushcrafting jaunts and gets forgotten about, for me its a tie to the boring 'real' world and has no place on my adventures.

Just had a look to see what else there was in there other than money, and apart from the tiny plastic snake and Beltane performer's pass from last April (don't ask), I just found the 2 plectrums which I thought I had lost after I bought them - this post is great! :You_Rock_
