There, I said it...
Ok so I know Jonny isn't real, but for the purposes of this blog, I'm him...
...and yep, one day I'll explain who, exactly, the late, great Jonny Hendrix, playboy Grand Prix champion and occasional world record holder, really is.
Yes, yes, I know, he's not really anyone - but in cyberspace he used to be somebody...and maybe, through this series of blogs, he can be again...
All of which is completely beside the point, please stop distracting me from my confession!!
So, I'm a gearaholic. I can't help myself...I just keep buying outdoor gear.
There is a breed of website that specialise in last season or end of line stock, sold at fairly large discounts...and they keep mailing me and making me look at all their tempting bargains!
Do I need another softshell jacket? Of course!
How about a fleece jacket? Well, I have several...but this one is a slightly different colour and marginally heavier...good point, well made - I'll take two!
Would you look at this bargain baselayer...couple of these might make a handy alternative to the other 17 you already have...? Why thank you kindly, sir, don't mind if I do...
With this type of sale, there's often quite some time, maybe 4-6 weeks between purchase and delivery, and this introduces a cool dynamic...by the time an order arrives, I've often forgotten what it is!
Surprise outdoor gear presents...yay!
All I can remember about this large, fairly heavy bag of surprise gear, is that it contains 4 items of clothing, and cost around £40...bargain!
Probably...
I still haven't opened it - I wanted to write this without knowing.
Now obviously, with a highly valuable prize such as this, I couldn't let it stand around in the garden unattended, so I have my troops on guard duty.
Nobody's getting at my gear without coming through these three...and I know you are all jealously coveting my sporty-surprise lucky-dip goody-bag. ...
Don't even think about it!
;-)
