thankyou for all the replys,
I will be looking into them this afternoon,
At the moment, I have got an Ex fireman Nomex Coat, I went out in it yesterday on the moors and it seemed to cope well, quite warm and fairly drizzle proof, But i think I might just get a big waterproof poncho for the heavyier downpours.

The lights, I'm going to spend a little time looking into, I think for a main flashlight, the streamlight ultra stinger looks quite good,
But for the personal light I will have to keep looking, anyhting will be better then the 4D maglite I've been heaving about the past weeks!

I have found some good pants here (4th down)

I'll get back to you on the rucksack and light,
I'm looking forward to a cosy afternoon of virtual shopping, While my Mrs. Is trapsing about in the wet looking in the january sale, Oh the joys of the internet! <img src="images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
