Raising the question: is a magnetic compass recommended then?

If you've found Rushmore head south. Deer camp and sweet, sweet booze aren't far away.

How's this for a hipflask?

I found that article about the history of the hip flask in the latest issue so inspiring I went rummaging through my box of tricks for the flask I knew I had somewhere. It's a little three ounce number I got free with a bottle of Johnnie Walker Black one time (I think). Seems like a perfect size for carrying a hair of the dog treble to slip into a cup of coffee. I will have to try this out in due course.

got a lovely 7oz er in the supermarket (ASDA [Walmart's UK arm]) Brushed stainless steel, no tat on it. Slightly thin skin, but I'll see how it holds up. I think a flask is best plain, though I do like a fine rounded shape and a good polish on them

I like it! I have one that is shaped like an older feature phone, as opposed to the smart phone. It doesn't take much of a second look to realize it's not a phone, but it has passed through rushed inspections in the past without any problem.

Hooray, my MDM flask arrived. It's not as sturdy as the little three oz freebie I got, & the logo is off centre, but it's got a pourer & a lid holding arm thing. I also got a copy of the magazine, a badge & a stubble holder. I'm pretty stoked. There are lots of ads for bars in Denver in the mag. I'd thought about making a stop there to buy some legal weed when I finally visit the States, but while I'm there I may as we'll visit some bars. Still just a vague plan at this stage, but one day...

In the right place, you could make a lot of friends in a hurry with a full one of those.
