Haha, don't go there! It was only after Pinky saw Neil's last weekend, that he conceded that they were a good idea...

**Biker** · 23-03-2011, 17:09

Some new erasers for my Pental 0.5mm propellant pencil and Firefly boxed set of DVDs the complete series on Ebay.

Haven't bought anything bushcrafty but Alison and I were walking up at the Normandy beaches today (It's her birthday so we made a day out of it) and I picked up a load of flint stone from "Juno" beach in anticipation of receiving the striker from Whittler Kev'. Figured I'd make myself a Jerimiah Johnson type tinder/striker pouch thingy. Just tried my Opinel carbon knife on one stone and got some sparks, so things are looking good.

**lab72** · 23-03-2011, 17:18

some leather goods

**John Fenna** · 23-03-2011, 17:24

I want to contribute to this thread but I hardly ever buy anything... but I have recently bought a van, then a new gearbox and clutch for it and some diesil to get it running. Now I am totaly skint!
Oh - I did find a few pennies for some leather to make more stuff to sell...and a lottery scratch card....but that last was wasted effort!

**Gibbo** · 23-03-2011, 18:11

A Navigon GPS system - not particularly bushcrafty but I can now do some geocaching with the kids.
Gibbo.
