Cheers! Sorry I was so slow about getting it to you. Once I've pulled my finger out and done the full member thing and can sell stuff I'll put the rest of the surplus blankets on offer to get rid. I've filled that old blanket chest with my favourite dozen or so but there's about as many I just can't merit keeping. 3 I'll have to put on eBay as ones a collectors item ( a pre 1934 Army and Navy Stores single that's perfect for going in a private purchase officers bedroll and there's a pair of Witney doubles of immense thickness that were new in their 1970s cellophane when I got them. If it wasn't for their colour ( bright yellow ) I'd have kept them as the quality is amazing, it would almost be a shame to roll about in the mud in them!
A couple of these spares are slightly felted from being washed but most are pretty well minty. The charity shops are still a good source. I turned my nose up at a couple only this week as they would have been awkward to carry home and quite frankly I've enough! I'm still looking for the dark green Witney I've been after all along to match my capote.
