Yep, get well soon Poledragon, hope mending occurs asap!

This week has been expensive!
Have bought/ordered a new EDC bag, as the company is doing 20% off and free P&P;

I am not connected or on commision I hasten to add! :)

Also bought some walkie talkies which were mentioned on another link (which you can improve on) and some freeze dried food from the below site for the BOB, I got the trial pack, it's arrived but I haven't tasted/tested any yet!

Seems an interesting site, once again am only a customer! :lol:
Hope all are well, it's been a fun/pricey week!
