Quick! Bottle and sell it, you'll be a rich man by Tuesday

But should I sell it by volume or weight?

The package does not state a volume or weight.

Not a great morning. I was on my way to work, as you do when employed by a company, usually. Decided it was a bit cold so I went to zip up by BIG unfriendly weather coat only to find that the zip was not working properly. No time to fix it or to change to another coat which is just as well as I just checked and found that it was thrown out some time ago. So a couple of hours holiday were put for to take at the end of the day which meant I had about an hour of shopping time once I got back to town from work! I am now £55 pounds poorer but have a nice new coat that comes complete with a liner. I am so going to be confused where all the things I carry around, such as but pass/train pass and phone are as the pockets are different 

Oh well, that's life

smile in the fact that you have the pockets!    Mrs SP always bemond the fact that ladys coats useualy have 2 or 3  and she`s always needed more.....
as i joke i suggested a fishing jacket,  for u know .. all the pockets !!
so she bought one.   and now loses things as she cant remember, which is in what pocket.

That was the problem when combat trousers were all the rage in the mid-90s. You could be patting yourself down and trying umpteen pockets in increasing panic for ages before finding your wallet

Been there, done that.  Usually walking into the office when raining, and desperately searching for my ID and access badge in the hi viz EMS jacket I used to wear in inclement weather

Must admit I wear "cargo's" as standard, simply because of the extra pockets 

[PR19_Kit]

I always wear a multi-pocketed jacket for the same reason, different weights depending on the season. Over time the umpteen pockets bulge more and more, and usually resulted in the late Mrs_PR19 describing the jackets as 'Your handbag'.

Yea, but yours is a "poachers" jacket/waistcoat Kit 

[PR19_Kit]

It is? 

I didn't know that............

Yup, although gamekeepers also wear them

Haveing recently taken ownership of a 1/144 Handley Page Hastings C.1 I am starting to wonder if there are any 1/144 air droppable Land Rovers to sling under it

Try the railway accessories people? Sure there should be some for the smaller gauge railways?

[PR19_Kit]

IIRC Oxford Diecast do a Landie in UK N Gauge, which is 1/148 scale, pretty darn close.

Thanks for those ideas guys.

Something that I am wanting to get at the moment but finding is a real chore as I have not found anything specific in any search I have done.

I am wanting to get some 1/72 instrument faces as decals. I know such things are available in larger scales, again finding such things is not as easy as national markings for an aircraft, I am sure though that this comunity can point me in the right direction.

On another note, I got a message from Hannants saying that the new KP Tempest II was in stock
