Nice tip, thanks DD. :)

FA Kit replenished, got some cylumes as well from poundland.
Two is one and one is none, but three is even better.

I've just been to pick up two, double original Witney wool blankets from a lovely lady on freecycle. They are a beautiful peach colour, and in perfect condition. I'm delighted as I've wanted some for ages, but the vintage ones go for a fortune on Ebay. Chuffed to bits! :mrgreen:

They have opened a big "Go Outdoors" warehouse near me. Went in there today for the first time, I was like a kid in a toy shop :D

Picked up some repair patches for my tarp and also a few pegs to go with it, plus a 3/4 length Ultralite Self Inflating Mat. I was very restrained.

The prices aren't bad...better than Millets/Blacks etc but you can obviously find things cheaper online
