    Head's up - Osborne Wool Fedora

    Just a quick head's up for UK members. Debenhams have a sale and free delivery on and I have just got a Osborne wool fedora for £18.20. Okay, I know it's not super quality and not felt but as a "rough and ready" hat I think it's okay...

    British Railways' Camping coaches

    How things change?. It's funny that to stay in an old coach nowdays is a fair amount of money. I had a weeked here in the old coach a few years ago. Great location and a nice accommodation it was too. http://www.hostearms.co.uk/Railway/

    Anyone use or own Wooden Skis?

    I used a pair of the lapland style about 30 years ago but broke the tip on one while after a fall at speed coming downhill on the Cairngorms. I remember it was hard work trying to travel back on one ski. My knees would not stand up to skiing these days :-D Good fun though and good luck to you.

    Nice stove Paddy and a good find :). Any chance of sharing the name of said merchant shop?(There is an old fashioned type of hardware shop in Heacham, Norfolk. It does not stock anything old but it's the same family for 4 generations and while selling harware they have the house next door...

    Gone fishing...

    Nice photo's - some you could be mistaken for being in Cornwall. Sadly, I am not a fly fisher but a humble coarse angler but your trip looks like it could convert :) For anyone interested in classic angling (apologies if the rag has been covered before)...

    "Nordwand" revisited....a small Alpine Display

    Danke Schon, Patrick. Thanks for the info. Yep, Knickers are my wifes underwear, mine are "pants" in this neck of the woods. You are correct though about the Bundhose, I use that style in moleskin or corduroy for some of my outdoor pursuits, never bothered with a tweed pair for some reason...

    "Nordwand" revisited....a small Alpine Display

    Beautiful little film, I really enjoyed watching it. Looked like a real good day out. Two questions Patrick if you don't mind (always the questions :eeek:) 1a) Where did you get the trousers from (Orginal or repo?) ? 1b) Same for the breeks? 2) How do they compare to modern clothing...

    Tracker

    "Nordwand" revisited....a small Alpine Display

    Hello Patrick May I ask where you got the collection of pencil type sketches of equipment, etc that are shown as cards on the left hand side of the first photo, from? Also what are they from? They look jolly interesting and would like to see them in more detail, so finding how I may...

    THE NIGHT WATCH - Another great drama from BBC

    What I find odd is the amount of money the BBC must have spent on this, only to use a maglite sprayed green with a large nut attached. I know it was only in shot for about 20 seconds (in the bombed out house) but I find it annoying. Other than that I enjoyed it. Same for a modern radiator on...
