That's the one! It unzips across the front at about knee height so you can step your legs out, and the unzipped part folds up behind and is held in place by a belt around the waist.

Some Italian thieves did me the favour of nicking mine back around 2004, it was found 366 days later stored in a farmers barn 60kms away and had been left there by said tealeafs on the same evening it had disappeared there was a wop Italian newspaper lying on the floor, I bought a Terracan and never had any reliability issues afterwards. A strange favour those thieves did for me.

Good job you put a strikethrough the racism there. Wouldn't want anyone to think you were a bigot.

Interesting isn't it, how 'luxuries' can entirely depend on where you are in the world and what it is you are doing.

Most want warm socks and a cappuccino - you are just trying to stay alive.

Absolutely.
I spend a lot of time the other side of the pond. Good coffee is still a must, most North American diner stuff is too weak for my taste.
Don’t go anywhere without a satellite phone, flares, basic first aid, shovel etc.
Have known guys have who have had there appendix removed as a precaution as if you have it burst up North you’re stuffed. Twenty plus years ago when I first spent time there , the wife suggested I got my teeth checked out. Thought it would be a good idea as a precaution only to find out her real reason was some what darker.
She had read that if you are eaten by a bear they cannot digest teeth so wanted an up to date dental record to be able to claim on the life insurance

That’s the humbling part of hunting/stalking in remote areas. Every time I go out I have to accept that there’s a possibility something could go wrong and I could die… but with meticulous planning I can improve my odds to the point where I don’t even think about it. That being said, having warm socks and some coffee is damn nice when you’re out there! .

I can’t.

Fingerless gloves and taking my Elephant and Howdah that I bought of my mate the Indian Maharaja. My mates think it's a bit over the top for my stalking in Lancashire, and to a point I agree because the gloves aren't essential.

 

[baguio]

The extremely knowledgeable and experienced stalkers that have taught me so much and who I can now call my friends will never be taken for granted. Some things money just can't buy!

 

[camodog]

A good dog that doesn't just 'fek off' into the distance after the first hare to get up on a mornings stalk !

 

[Puds]

Soft bog roll, and a foam seat pad for the high seat.

 

[DevonRifle]

Waterproof walking boots. Man I wish I had waterproof walking boots.

Note to self: you may be half Scot but stop being so tight!

 

[foxdropper]

What a bunch of nancies we have bred ffs .What dosnt kill you makes you stronger .Give me bare boards covered in pigeon shite and the foam around the outside eaten by squirrels any day .Makes the climb down so much more to look forward to .

 

[sikamalc]

Good health. And a loving family.
That's the most important thing.

I am not, I just did it as a jest to add to the way it was stolen. He went to the small local garage where it was up on the ramp with the wheels off getting the brakes done, he told the mechanic he was my son (I have no kids) and that he needed the car for that night. The grease monkey (sic) put it all together and gave him the keys and off it went. I have heard most derogatory comments ref others from almost only British folks over my 72 years, its a hell of a long list too.

Yeah you're right. Racism is fine when it's funny.
