TIP: The online
Bushwalk Inventory System can help bushwalkers with a variety of bushwalk planning tasks, including: Manage which items they take bushwalking so that they do not forget anything they might need, plan meals for their walks, and automatically compile food/fuel shopping lists (lists of consumables) required to make and cook the meals for each walk. It is particularly useful for planning for groups who share food or other items, but is also useful for individual walkers.

Pillows- Have a look at the Exped, I find it very comfortable. Especially if wrapped in a micro fleece.

Bag: very much leaning towards a western mountaineering summerlite (wish these would go on sale though....!)
and jacket I'm still on the fence about. There's a nice goretex outdoor reasearch jacket on sale at Bogong, but it isn't a long fit
I think you're in the zone with those choices, and good luck waiting for WM bags to be on sale.
What's the OR jacket ?
