Jack Wills Hello chaps Just saw this jacket in "Jack Wills" and thought it appropriate for the AGT The downside is it's a fashion jacket and being designed for the young and trendy will not fit me. http://www.jackwills.com/Store/ProductDetails.aspx?ProductRef=003649&Option=003649863- Mr. Godfrey

Mr Alan, When you change your socks, you can wear the old pair around your neck as you walk to help dry them. This is indeed, not stylish for fellows of the FL but a practical solution to drying socks.- Mr. Godfrey

Camel Trekking Attire
You could take the Dr Otto Schaden approach!. I met this chap last year in Egypt, a really intersting and thoroughly nice chap. He discoverd the last tomb in the V of the K (KV63). Remember, you may need eye protection too. although you may end up like this! What ever make...- Mr. Godfrey

Hello Mr Alan There is a big debate on Gortex boots vs Leather if you want a real in depth debate try this site http://www.bushcraftuk.com/forum/ The same goes for cotton vs wool vs manmade fibre, polycotton being fast drying is the key I guess. As for a hat, I have always used a...- Mr. Godfrey

North Face AKA Nordwald

Really good, moving story and really good photography, I guess Blue-Ray woould be good. Well worth watching and I guess should be in the Adventurers Gear thread too. What are...- Mr. Godfrey

Favorite RAF Movies
All of these but I would have to add "The Great Escape" and "Angels One Five" and possibly "The Malta Story" but the Great Escape has to be a classic RAF based film IMHO.- Mr. Godfrey

Leather Bound Books
I remember being told by the National Trust that the best thing for leather bound books it to continue to read them, the oil from the palms of the hands is all that's needed to keep them from drying out. Funny how they wear white cotton gloves with old books, eh!!! Not sure I would want to do...- Mr. Godfrey
