I helped a mate move house today and was paid with a crate of bullshit like this. I can only assume it’s left over from an Ann Summers party.

All phones will eventually be soil. I’m thinking of making an early start. Fhuck all this fhucking nonsense.

Someone on a bushcraft forum will know the little independents. Thanks for your help.

Can you recommend any custom makers who predominantly serve the private sector?

I was going to gripe about that earlier. It's just made my phone shitter. So probably behaving as desired then.

THE big man?

Don’t know. Who mustn’t be mentioned? You can mention them once I’m sure. In fact you must!

@markieg31 I’m not sure I’ve banged on about this recently but the way to build vans is internal combustion front wheel drive and electric rear wheel drive. Low load area floor, three wheel drive with effectively any degree of diff locking/slip on the back you like, electromagnetic braking. You could even make the rears steer since they’d only need articulation and not transmission. Hybrid clean in tight quarters and shunting about on electricity and internal combustion for full days’ working. Modern vehicles are already complicated and unreliable. Might as well make them good in the intervening moments. Fair enough about the cost of a round cab mog. That is actually a reasonable way for you to get low range.

I thought I'd already checked back in about this but here's my year-and-a-quarter review. It's still waterproof. Material and build (things like pocket corners) are still good. Apart from the zip, which went floppy at the bottom quite quickly and is now a fiddle to do up. The pockets aren't big enough, there aren't enough of them and the top ones are too close to the bottom ones; I struggle to get the ice cream tub of veg scraps into the bottom pocket because the top pocket is bulky and in the way. Biggest complaint is the hood. No protection on the side of your cheekbones and eyes. Perhaps cut for being warry and having hawk-like peripheral vision but still feels like pac-a-mac design on a 300 quid coat. So well made but some design flaws. Or just not the exact design I want. I need a similar, non-waterproof one but I'm not buying the obvious choice of the Arktis B211 Mountain Smock if the hood is going to be the same (and the pockets are smaller). I've only found one brand who do what looks like a decent hood (Lockwood) but they're all waterproof. I rather rashly the other day exclaimed, "Fjuck it. If nobody makes what I want, I'll do it myself." I don't much fancy a 250 piece minimum order of £200 jackets.

The best of luck to him then. I once drove a Land Rover with a crap heater from Suffolk to Gateshead in a cold snap. That was bad enough.

For what you might spend on a mog (and considering you don’t necessarily want the utility Stephen mentions) have you considered electric?

I was going to say similar. If it’s a big thing to get to, sure, don’t be gay, make the trip; it’ll be a good story. My approach in the UK (most of England where most of the population is anyway) is just don’t bother. For the four or five days a year of snow we get here, just stay at home and save yourself about a 10,000% chance of an accident. Most things can wait a day or two.

It's very typical pit remediation woodland. Ground is loose, piss wet and on a slope. Soil slipping out from under it is quite plausible.

Skid a big cock and balls into that gravel or hand over your once good name.

Man plans, god laughs.

Serious gear all of a sudden! 650ml is a weird size can too. Not a forty but clearly goes to the same church.

I bet they do!

Do they somehow manage to provide the tax collection and planning enforcement services though?

I recently made an application to change a hearing date. Called the court to pay the application fee. They said they’d call me when they got to my application and take the fee then. OK. When will that be? About five weeks. The hearing’s in three weeks. I heard her shrug. Anyway. I sweet-talked her and queue-jumped five weeks of people. Hardly fair for them. Whole thing’s a mess.

Put up the bat signal. That needs doing. It’s a bonny hedge. Someone might be happy to do it for some shooting/ferreting permission or something. Good swap for the right person.

Got up early to go stalking. Set an alarm and everything. Can’t find an important part of the operation. Now I’ve put the kettle on and sat down. Another day… Handily its likely location has just flagged in my mind now I’ve mentioned it.

Refer to postmen as couriers btw. They appreciate the nuance.

That’s handy for the freshly minted Michael Horatio Dempsey of Tunis Street, Tunis. He probably drives an imported Morris Minor to keep the ruse going.
