Oh aye, nowt but moors here and anxious sheep. If you see some one in DPM they are probably off poaching.

Thankfully I've always been too fat and bookish to be tempted to play dress up, mind It don't stop some, on the interweb I've seen five foot, twenty stone waffen SS and 60 year old Glider troops. Each to their own. I've been sniffing webbing for 40 years who am I to comment?

Actually I could do with a SAS fan boy to pop up to tell me if the ladder and tool are kosher, just curious more than owt else.

I found another mystery item, this time in the collection, a mass of green straps and buckles which I've labelled. "KC 8140 Stretchers, harness, manifold". The KC prefix means nowt to me. Looks 1940s or 50s. Anybody have a idea what it is precisely. It looks like something that could hold a man onto a stretcher when carried over difficult terrain, or a bit of all fresco bondage, I've no idea. Sadly my go to man for webbing died at the end of last year.
