shopping for bags

We have been shopping for rucksacks. Today we went to Birmingham and tried some on in Blacks, Field & Trek and Oswald Bailey. We also looked at a few little bits and bobs, fun stuff like solar showers and freeze-dried meatballs in case the food is horrible, which it probably won't be. We looked a bit at shoes, found some nice looking ones, but of course they weren't the right kind. - Melissa
