Which haunted house did you find it in, in the end Sean? Good price?

The classifieds here :grin: I messaged Richpips about the Alpkit jacket he was selling but it is the newer version with the adjuster on the back of the hood, so no good for sleeping in. He suggested the Ghost Wisperer he was selling, I had not considered it as it's a small but he sent me some dimensions and it appears that 11 St 4 lb* and just under 6 ft is "small" in MH sizing :???: and at only £60 a very good price :-bd

* I should be 10 St 10 lb but the Christmas excess has taken it's toll, I fear I may have to employ my usual spring tactic of giving up the beer for 3 months although in past years I've been motivated by the HT550... maybe I'll just skip dinners instead :lol:

You still have a BB300 to knock out. I reckon that must be worth 4lb :wink:

The way things are going I fear I'll be doing two back to back this October, BB600 anyone? Hopefully the angry land-owners will have calmed down by then.

That kinda looks like it was made from the two big fluffy bath mats that arrived today. Just the fluff. Not the face.

Hydrapak Seeker 3l water pouch. Folding water bottle to allow me to camp somewhere further from water. Tend to have dehydrated meals so need the liquid for food and coffee. My previous container has split, was a fancy nalgene one with a wide mouth opening brought over from the US so I'm a bit disappointed it's only lasted a few years. Less than 5 maybe?

Hoping this one last longer, packs smaller and is softer so shouldn't be as prone to cracking. Also comes with a little pouch to store it in

Also dropped off 3 Bla Band pasta meals

My Joystick back from Exposure after having the switch replaced, £14 including the return postage, a great service as the light is 4 years old, they can't make any money out of that.

Two bottles of wet lube, but looking at the weather and conditions I should have perhaps ordered a few more.

The furry lined leggins I bought from somewhere in the EU as a completely experimental impulse buy :oops: Only I temporarily forgot I have long legs, so even if I could have squeezed them past my hips, which I couldn't :oops: they would only be calf length on me. Interesting interpretation of a size 14... Does anybody want them off me? Would suit a petite build lady size 10 to 12...Asking £15 including postage but if you think that's too much, make me a cheeky offer. I paid what I now think is a well overpriced £25 :oops: and I wasn't even drunk at he time...o well....

Mrs Perrin's in 5 days. Treat? Good idea. Ah, hmm. "furry lined leggings", or... "chocs, vino, spa break, clothes..."... Ah. Still, she's not getting any of those either! Three motion sensor door lights already wrapped :???: . Shh. Don't tell her. It's a surprise. I think I might be in trouble....
