no no no no..... Dom, sorry mate, you've got it all wrong  Handheld Garmin 76s, Satellite phone, solar battery charger (for the GPS receiver and the phone) and a selection of credit cards...
Works like this....
1. programme the lat. and long. of every Burger King, 'greasy spoon', off - licence & chinese takeaway into the Garmin
2. use the sat. phone to either a) order a delivery or b) phone a taxi to get there or c) get the taxi to collect & deliver.... 
Works a treat!
although apparently some 'regiment' lads tried this in NI, their O/C wasn't too impressed when the FOB was compromised by late night pizza deliveries.... allegedly

Mind you I expect if push came to shove to could muddle through I'll teach you fire by friction if you like (there isn't an emoticon for 'tongue in cheek', sorry) 2004 Discovery 3 - gone

Dom, thanks..... I think
Hate to disappoint you but i've done the whole E&E course, even now, I still keep hexi blocks and 'rat packs' in a bug-out bag along with other 'neccesities' of course.
Do you have an old tobacco tin with your bits in? I do

BN, have you gone mad?
They'll never get me.... NO!
Mrs 10 does all the shopping (online, naturally, with a bottle or two of South African or Italian finest vino collapso) although I can spend hours in proper bloke shops (hardware emporium's, tobacconists - NOT 'newsagents - builders merchants and of course, tool shops) as if that wasn't enough proof I also am confident as to which side I 'dress' and have a subscription to (amongst others ) T3 magazine, which features not only the finest gadgets that work on electrickery but also (some of) the finest totty to show it off - much to mrs. 10's chagrin . I also have a stock of reading material next to the 'bog' AND can leave the seat up as and when I please
There !
Cheers,

Naw mine's slightly larger and goes on my belt along with a bushcraft knife which is a beautiful piece of kit.

Well, I try and keep well clear of anything that involves food shopping (that's why I know about the cafe.....)
Haven't been in Gillingham today, but the A303 was full of D3s today - even a nasty brown coloured itinerant Dutch one. I think that the kids counted seven from Wincanton to Barrington and back - most headed towards Cornwall I guess. Maybe they'll meet Gareth.
