"Broadsword calling Danny Boy, Broadsword calling Danny Boy"

Those words bring back some long forgotten memories!

I had one for review a long time ago - but it was a loaner from Extreme Outdoor Clothing. Great Smock for a serious price.... I would love another one - for keeps!
Extreme clothing is top gear and I am still wearing a cotton Smock (based on the 60s SAS smock) that I got for review from Kieth about 100 years ago!

I always felt sorry for the hapless guy in the tower at Oberhausen military airfield. And what were Colonel Turner's motives for working for 'the other side'?

 

[John Fenna]

What about the liney who had to replace all the wires they brought down! Poor so&so!

 

[Fizzy]

Or the poor domestic workers, made redundant as they could no longer get the cable car up to Schloss Adler. No one thinks of the little people!

Hahaha, that's my ring tone, I have been stopped a few times by mates and random strangers on hearing and asking for it

 

[tobes01]

Please, please will somebody order one and tell me it's as good as it looks... I so want one...

I reviewed it and loved it - it hurt to give it back at the end of the review!

Satisfied?

I love mine. They are BEAUTIFULLY made - and made to fit the individual, so they are wonderfully comfortable. I've worn mine in the woods and, ironically, skiing in Austria. I suppose the only hiccough is that they are quite heavy but the fit, quality and that 'je ne sais quoi' added by their use in that magnificent film make it a pleasure to wear and use, albeit selectively.

What I'm after now is one of those grey peaked caps made of wool with the two buttons on the front... Any clues?

I remeber going to see that film with my dad, and then went back to see it with a mate on the Saturday afternoon. We'd spent our bus fares home (as you do) and had to walk...and it snowed!!! Whahey! Speak about reliving the film lol

Thanks for the memories, guys...a great film and an iconic line! I have it on my phone now

Any idea how to contact the guy ? There is only an email option on the website which doesn't seem to get looked at. I fancied an Explorer fleece but don't think I'll be sending my money off until I've made contact with someone

EDIT - found Keith's mobile number on the web and it still works. If anyone wants it, PM me.

Thanks
