Hi all.
Sorry it's been a while but I've been unwell. I'm still not 100 per cent but thank God, slowly getting there!
Anyway. To the question.
As I've not been well I'm having to build up my...
Hi and welcome from North Somerset!!
Thanks for the advice!
I Found a Condor WB pouch for £20 so half the price of the Maxpedition so Ive ordered one of those to try it out and see if I like it.
Even if I don't use it for a water...
Hi Everyone.
I think its a quick and easy sort of question, but with the 10x4 and 12x5 water bottle holders being pretty expensive here in the UK and them not being as popular in the UK as in the...
Hi. The idea of extra clothing ( disguise may be the wrong image) is that the incident has already happened, you have been able to disengage without further contact and you now have to get to a safe...
I think the decision would depend on the weather/environment you are in. I put shelter as here in the UK it rains a lot!
This would help in a couple of ways. First if you have to build shelter,...
Hi Everyone.
It is an emotive issue. I mean its natural to want to protect those that you love even if that means putting yourself in harms way to do so.
Im the sort of guy that will help anyone I...
As a previous reply said. When this had happened we walked to the local Walmart and bought some drinks making sure we were not followed. The idea being that the store has security and cameras so if...
Hi. Thanks for your replies.
If I had reported the incident I would probably been charged as it was not me that was struck by the bike! Yup, If my wife had punched him it would be self defence....
Hi All.
This may sound a strange title so I will explain a little to try and make it clearer!
The other day my wife and I had a problem with someone either drunk or on drugs.
One thing led to...
Hi. Ive also just bought a MMSS which is sure to be a favourite come winter!
The BCB Crusader system as used by the British Army is also my goto brew and cook kit when travelling solo!
Hi. I think the first thing may be to define what a tomahawk is and what you want to use it for?
I have used mine on and off now for five years. Its down to what you intend to want it to do. Its a bit long for small carving on traps, I use a pocket knife with a 3 inch blade most of the time....
Hi. That's interesting, Tilley hats here in the UK are sized! Mine are 58/59 and fit real well.
I have two Tilley hats for the winter and a summer one.
I also use a wool watch cap and a MTP...
Hi from North Somerset.
Hi. Mine would be M51 cold weather parka, BCB/Army Crusader stove system and DPM Camo Para smock.
After todays cold weather, my 2 cup size thermas flask has shot up the ratings!
Hi. I don't "cook" when Im out so I can get by with a canteen cup on its own. I do have an MSR stowaway 775ml size that also doubles as a PSK carrier so that too is often with me or a SAS evasion...
Hi. The good old wool buff is becoming a favourite of mine this winter. From a scarf, head gear and an extra useful sleep item too! Small and light yet versatile!
Happy New Year all! Stay safe and have a good one!
Hi. I have to agree. I have arthritis and a dodgy knee and have found that using Ribz front packs/or chest rigs and webbing I can spread the weight better, Keep more often used gear at hand and...
Hi.
I used internal framed packs until I tried the ALICE from a surplus store. (We don't seem to be able to get any civvy selection of external frame packs now in the UK, not sure why?). Since then...
Hi.
I recently bought a hand made wool bush shirt from TwoDogs on Bushcraftuk. Its made from a wool blanket, (like a wool Parka) real heavy and Im sure gonna enjoy testing it this winter. I have a...
Well its that time of year again.
Im driving the wife mad while I get out my winter kit and put the summer gear away for another year! :2:
I love camping in all seasons as each has its...
As you quite rightly say he didn't survive but in his defence , he didn't die of natural causes! No matter what you carry and what skills you have, if you are shot in the back they wont help!
