I've been looking at them myself,
Not bad
Nice! Not wore a watch myself for years. Currently holding out for the Moto 360
I don't wear watches either. I always remember a lass asking me for the time; "i don't need a watch cos i have all the time in the world". Oh jon thats so sweet.

Bought a used an Osprey Kestrel 48, not the lightest but lighter and smaller than my old (20 yr) regatta coffin @2kg!!! Will certainly do for low level outings.
Don't always use a sleep mat but on advice bought an el cheapo North Ridge one that comes in at 665g (300g lighter than my vango one!!) for a whopping £28

That should see me to winter time until the overtime starts and the wife is off the scent of the increasing transactions ( since joining here).
Oh and an Anker 2nd gen charger doo dah for my phone.

As Tucas Down Socks arrived today- lovely they are too!
Also bought a second hand (looks new) Rab Kinder Down Smock- too good to pass up. Just ordered a wee lantern for the Trailstar and some mini krabs from the bay of evil

Have you tried it yet? I got a couple in the post today.
Just had a quick go and i have to say i'm quite impressed for what it is.
Its like an almost full size pillow made from "wet-the-bed" hospital mattress protector material crossed with a Capri sun drink thing
They must cost peanuts to make ! But yeah not bad at all. Not sure about the longevity though.

Not yet bud. Will probably arrive tomorrow (My birthday)
May end up putting tshirt over it or something, I think a plastic feeling pillow would get on my nerves.

Anyone know how heavy the 10,000mAh ones weighs? Can only see the boxed weight.
The 5600mAh one indicates 122grams
There is also a 13000mAh one - £21.99 same price as the 10,000mAh

Just tried on the kitchen scales ( non digital) and it's 220gms(ish) in its wee protective bag.
I went for the 10k as it's the second generation and charges faster, similar to charging in the house. Plus it'll do over 4 times on my iphone ( I think) ,more than enough for me.
To give an idea of size compared to my works Nokia 520,petty much same size as I phone. Bag is quite cushioned.
