Well it looks like they've pretty much got all bases covered there Pete ... meths, gas or wood for tea?

In contrast to last weekend the weather this weekend looks set to be warm and dry. So, has anyone got any plans for a sub 24 hour trip or is it working/shopping/DIY for everyone?

Jesus, it looks like something from a St Trinians film

$240 Pete

Has anyone had any dealings or know anything about these ... interested in the synthetic quilts more than owt else.

I believe they do deliver ... on certain products. It tends to say on the item whether they'll deliver it or if it's in store only.

Yea I thought the camo one looked well considering the price ... the insulation must be some benefit.

That's just was I was thinking ... don't need one, don't need one, don't need one!

flatfishy have you bought the last of the green hammocks then?

Right Pete, the ones with the 3 layer bottoms are the Green Hornet which only seem to be left in odd colours. The other option would be just the Jungle hammock which doesn't seem to be 3 layers although it does have a full net or the one below which has some bottom insulation built in and a full net...

Just remember Pete, the ten quid ones don't have any midge netting ... but hey, you can't go wrong for a tenner

Perhaps a 'hammock only' overnighter could be on the cards for the future

You going into hammock hire then flatfishy?

MM-on-Point ... feel free to request a review or whatever. The more the merrier (as long as they are merry)

Pete, I think I'm right in saying that if you get one from the link then you shouldn't need anything else ... seems to come with straps, etc.

Well I splashed out but I didn't splash much ... £25. It's a Go-system Siroco 00, not the lightest thing in the world but it does seem very well made and importantly very stable. It arrived with a windshield too, which was an unexpected bonus :D http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-kbVbmEdkO_M/TifeL_S3g-I/AAAA...

DNF, that's some proper hike-a-bike

Never tried one ... I think I'm put off as I like the feeling of pulling something over the top of myself. If I was going to buy a bag with only half it's quota of down, I'd buy a backless bag/quilt.

spill the beans then what is it???

I'm not saying, as just like any other bivvy ninja warrior, if I tell you then I'll have to kill you

On my last couple of trips I haven't been carrying any spare clothes. No spare clothes means nothing to stuff a dry bag with, this in turn means no pillow. Problem solved ... this arrived today, 160g of self inflating pillowy goodness for the princely sum of a fiver ;) http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-SKoI...

Pete, the ones that Nevis linked to>

Have a limit of 150kg (23.5 stone) ... reckon you'll be fine

Here you go Bigface, plenty to choose from but the one like mine is out of stock.

I'll forgive your phone just this once

Bigface ... who is Drug?

Chocolate covered peanuts here and tea obviously

What's your comfort food when you're all snug in your bag?

Yes and that place may be at the bottom of said slope!

I seem to recall flatfishy describing his Jetboil as, 'a one trick pony' ... make of that what you will
