Also all packed and sorted, remembered to make my sandwiches. A very civilised departure time of 8.30, looks like we will get wet but hey ho. See you...
Yes, we might even have enough Germans to form two sections! Starting to get excited now, just a few more hours of work to endure. Dying under a sea ...
So if I happen to be in the UK in June/July 2014, would you guys be able to hook me up with kit? Am planning to come through with the girlfriend (she ...

As Steiner says, the main thing is to go with generic waffenfarbe so you can just swap shoulder boards for different impressions. I have got both moun...
A couple of options for British kit would be to wear the small pack on your waist or use a gas mask bag (or is the bottle too big for that even?). If ...
