    Glad to see this thread's alive and well.
    Do you want to be happy or do you want to be normal?

    British Army Artic bivvy bag from a mate for £7.50. Its the older heavier style one that folds into a bag but will be ideal if I have to ground dwell in my artic sleeping bag in the colder months.

    My daughter requested that I order a throwing axe that she had seen from http://woodsmithexperience.co.uk/ so i had to order a few other things whilst visiting the site

    Ended up with -

    Throwing Tomahawk (Daughters)
    Mora of Sweden Carving Knife 120 (Me)
    Mora of Sweden HighQ Robust (Son)
    Mora of Sweden 840 Companion Carbon (Daughter)
    Ben Orford Crook Knife (Another for me)

    You *must* promise never to tell my daughter that Gransfors do throwing axes (her obsession with power tools is bad enough).

    No idea bud, not arrived yet. It's Ti and only a 330ml so will likely be about 50-60g. I ordered it as I wanted a decent cup that was strong but light. I have a couple of nice folding cups for hiking/UL camping but this will go with my woody/bushy style kit

    Making a change from being a ground dweller, picked up a DD Frontline. Also got the 12cm zebra billy can, need to get it out and get it on a fire.
