Last chance for Gas


Okay did my last shopping run today, still outstanding on my wish list is now only a pair of Croc's. They sell a cheap version of them at the beach here, so I'll have to nip down the St. Brelade's bay and pick up some. My almost final purchases today, were a second pair of shorts and another technical t-shirt. With three sets of clothes, I'll have one dirty, one ready to put on and one drying. Hopefully means I won't have to wash clothes every night. I also grabbed a European socket adaptor and a great product from LifeSystems, universal soap, Lifesystems All Purpose Soap 200ml

I have been toying with the idea of a large dry back inside my rucksack but just does not seem worth the bother for one or two time I might be caught out. My paper work and valuables will be in a waterproof bags. The clothes, sleeping bag, liner and bivvy bag can all dry out with no long term ill effects.

My sleeping bag liner and rucksack are drying out today after a thorough soaking with skitostop, one less thing to worry about.

No training so far this week, can't do much tonight either as I'm hosting a games night for my lads and a couple of their friends, running the usual table top wargame loosely based on the Stalker computer games. Tonights mission will be “deliver the package”, what they don't know yet is the package is in fact priest and the local bandit lord, has put a price on the priests head, he dosen't want god getting in the way of business. Can the squad get the package through the zone to the freedom faction training base.

Throw in some zombies and some other random mutants, with a stalker cloth badges for the bravest or most selfless player action at the end of the game (usually about 2-3hrs later) and you have four very happy boys.
