    Picked up one of the water bottles with a belt carry case, just short of a fiver. Not quite as hard a plastic as a 58 bottle but still very tough. Water tight screw top, holds about 900ml not quite the full 1litre. Still enough for two coffees for me. Already got a 58 so dont need another mug, so in a way swapped a belt carry case for the mug for around the same price without worrying about P+P costs. Well worth the fiver for me.

    Picked u p a couple of head nets last weekend for under £2 each. The plan is to use them as fold away foraging bags for tinder etc.

    Bargain.

    I think the headnets in Wilkinsons have repellent on them so not sure if its good for holding food?

    The see through map cases are very good for a first aid kit case. Strong velcro closure, you can see where your stuff is and its corded so easy to hang in camp.
