Whats on your Christmas List?

[Harmonica]

S0rry (why can't i use that word?) - i know it's early to mention the C word but the lights are up in the shops and i'm being pestered by the family for gift ideas!!

My question is what bushcrafty things will people be asking Santa to bring them this year?

Cheers

Just ordered a Swazi "One Tough Brutha" Anorak as my Christmas pressie from me to me!

Apparently more robust than the Tahr Anorak as beloved by Mr Mears, but not as quiet as it doesn't have the soft outer layer..........not a problem for me as I don't do much in the way of hunting!

As far as I am aware, the missus has shelled out big style on nik naks for me. Some carved stuff, along with stuff for carving, and a rare nalgene type bottle! I like to know what I am getting, but I like a few surprises too!

Being pestered by the good lady on what i want for xmas (not a bad thing it must be said), thinking about a wax jacket of some sort, either a Barbour utility or a Filson something or other, either way i'll be happy

Don't you mean a Sythe...to go with your long black hooded cape.

Sorry could'nt resist.

I'm hoping for a bivvi bag. I got an Australian hootchie for my birthday (and already had a good sleeping bag and thermarest) so I just need the bivvi bag now so that I can start sleeping out of doors without having to take my tent.

For starting off, I reckon that a bivvi bag is more versatile than a hammock (in the UK) because you don't need trees to sling the hammock from.

A knife blank from SWC.

a long lie-in

Hopefully another pair of sealskinz, a couple of new base layers (not sure which yet???) and maybe a book or two.

The sooner it`s over the better for me, work gets stupidly busy and my ever growing number of new inlaws, nieces and nephews is costing me an arm and a leg these days.


I`ll make my way over to the grumpy old man corner :sulkoff:

Toddy,
I might be able to do a swap for one if you are interested. Its not new but works well. PM if you are interested.

A girlfriend who likes the outdoors haha

Failing the first I would like a decent jacket, a Fjallraven Falt Jacket would be superb!

Yep I'll continue in dreamland
