Aye, its amazing stuff. I have a wallet made out of gaffer,
i think i would be slightly embarrassed taking a 'bird'' out and then pulling out he gaffer tape wallet, it would scream cheap skate to me..similar vein to a bloke up the local who keeps his money in a washing machine tablet bag...Edited by The Spruce goose on Tuesday 16th December 20:44

Ive got a bag under the floor in the boot of the car,its got jump leads, tow rope,gaffer tape, selection of hand tools,cable ties, torch yellow vests etc.
In the boot I've got a small crate that houses a few blankets, 6-8 bottles of water a bag of tea coffee soups ready meals and some other food stuffs. In a separate bag theres a JetBoil plus some of there accessories. I can feed myself for maybe 4-6days.
