  • tarps (there were unused spares in 2008 at both top and base camp)
  • measuring tapes
  • survey instruments (conventional comp and clinos seemed to be working fine in 2008 though pony's and disto's need checking)
  • setters (I've sent a setter back to Cambridge - this still leaves at least 7 in Austria so leave this setter in Cambridge and leave a hand bolting kit there and then don't need to take any others backwards and forwards)
  • custard powder
  • cheese sauce powder
  • milk (we had too much in 07 and 08 - we don't use very much and its cheap so just buy fresh milk and a handful of UHT for top camp / Sundays. If any left at end give it to Hilde - do NOT leave it in the loft as it goes off and is disgusting and hard to get rid of)
  • coffee
  • tea
  • flapjack (I reckon there is plenty left for 2009)
  • curry paste
  • curry powder
  • sugar
  • salt
  • pepper
  • spices
  • sack rice (we don't eat it fast enough - buy in smaller quantities - but we do need some more rice and pasta for 2009)
  • lentils (already a huge sack at basecamp)
  • sandwich bags
  • chilli sauce
  • plain or golden syrup oatso (more flavoured ones needed though)
  • tomato soup (need other flavours of instant soup though - but don't buy too many, not much gets used - 50 packets?)
  • base camp soup (never gets used)
  • top camp meals (still about 50 left, thought most need stodge adding)
  • hot chocolate (not sure how much of this doesn't need milk adding - but can just add milk powder anyway?)
  • instant mash (still enough at top camp? second opinion?)
  • egg noodles (still enough at base camp? second opinion?)
  • instant noodles (still enough at top and base camp? second opinion?)
  • tomato pasta meals (these didn't seem popular, are low calorie and similar to *the various noodle things we already have - don't buy in 2009? second opinion?)
