I hadn't realised that to become a founder of the Guild you had to pay - obviously once you'd proved your worthiness! According to several...
Yep, so am I - it'll be good to see you again, Matt! :thumbup: Bring some cash this year, eh? ;) :)
Cheers, Pete! Well, it's horses for courses, naturally - I didn't exactly have a choice of designs. The fabric rests on a wire frame to keep it...
Cheers, Pete. The handkerchief shade is on page 64 in the Tilley book. I got it NOS from Neil - he got a few from someone in the Historic...
Someone here refers to them as "sewer pipes" [-X ](*,) No names, no pack drill... :lol: Anyway, these were mine:- [ATTACH] They're in someone...

...and just a general word of warning. Don't be tempted to use a screwdriver in the slot at the bottom. If it's at all tight, all you'll do is...
I was clearing out a file of screenshots I'd taken over the years and came across this:- [ATTACH] Sadly lacking in detail of the lamps...
You did - it's a case of dependent and independent variables. In this case, and all other things being equal, the fuel consumption depends on the...
Bliddy? :lol:
Well, I can see the logic there. All I'll say is that I have many chrome / nickel / speculum-plated lanterns and I've not noticed any useful...
Oh, a tiny error hardly worth the mention... ;) :lol:
Not sold in British Antarctica, obviously, but I think it's reasonable to assume that some would have ended up there to provide heat and light in...
