G'day fella's just wondering if anyone has tried the swags below. http://www.swagsaustralia.com/budget_swags.php

mickj i agree with you but, Billygoat is only allowed out to play with the big boys once or twice a year lol,so a cheap swag will last him a lifetime.

Here is a link to the swag have a look before you go in there http://www.aldi.com.au/au/html/offers/2827_6074.htm

Hey Billygoat check out Aldi supermarkets they have double swags for $149.00 it will probably do you for the amount of times you get out,that is if you end up coming this time.

nice shrubery you have in the yard there mick

Here you go billygoat taken from the Meindl website and i have highlighted in red the section on nubuck leather. How Lukas Meindl cares for his boots. 1. Preparation: Take the footbed out, so it can dry out. If you also want to wax your boots, take out the boot laces. 2. Cleaning: Remove the worst of the dirt under running water with a brush; also remove dirt and stones from the sole. 3. Hygiene: To improve the odour of your boots, clean the inside of your boots with luke-warm water and a brush. This doesn't hurt the lining. Leather linings without GORE-TEX® can be cleaned with washing soap; only use water on linings with GORE-TEX®. 4. Drying: Never dry boots in direct sunlight or on heat-generating units such as radiators or stoves. Wet leather is very sensitive to heat and "burns" easily (i.e. it becomes brittle and hard, and then gets cracked). When the lining is wet, stuff boots with newspaper (don't forget to remove later!). Dry boots keep their shape perfectly with wooden boot trees. 5. Spraying: It's best to do this when the boots are not quite dry. The pores are still open and the spray penetrates deeper. Cordura can only be sprayed, leather also requires regular waxing. 6. Waxing: Leather needs regular "nutritional" waxing, as do GORE-TEX® lined boots or the trim on cordura boots. Apply wax with a sponge or rag; don't forget the tongues! Caution: Do not heat! Otherwise the wax penetrates too deeply, decreasing breathability and thus comfort. 7. Tip for nubuck boots: Waxing changes the boots' appearance. The leather gets smoother and darker, but this is a perfectly normal, harmless process! The leather is "fed" and the seams become more stable. 8. Hooks and Eyelets: Protect against corrosion with wax or vaseline.

I have used dubbin on my nubuck leather boots and nothing happened to them,just made them darker and gave them a real smooth finish and i have been using these boots for a few year now.

Rono I have also checked with the opticzone and they also emailed me the same as bushpig that they will no longer be available as that line is being discontinued and he is out of stock with the 8 x 30,but not sure of the 10 x42 drop them an email.

I have the Peltor which i use for IPSC shooting and they are great.

Spot on greghud,Kathmadu pump alot of money into the animal libbers as the guy that started the company is a greeny.

Hey Bushpig i have the Dewey short skinner which is a fantastic knife and also have the puma hunter II which is also a great knife.

Looks great.

Im currently looking at the Tom Tom 750 as according to the blokes in the shop they are the way to go due to having the best reception on the market specially when leaving the city.They are also very user friendly.
