After a weekend camping with the lads and finishing up in the pub on the Sunday night I staggered down to the local orchard and slept under a tree in just my sleeping bag, I was woken up by an old boy on a ride on lawnmower cutting the grass in a circle around me!

slept on the beach on Lindisfarne whilst on a paddling trip from Craster. got woken up by noisy seals in the morning. also slept in a plastic road workers hut whilst doing the DOE. 4 of us sat bolt upright with a corner each and no room to put our legs out or up.

Horton in Ribblesdale railway station after 200km on the yd300 last year. No real shelter, not much sleep. Suffered the next day.

Not really a bivvy but I stayed in a cabin last night at an old Uranium mine that offers radon baths and the tap water stank of Sulphur. I fully expect to grow an extra head in the following days.

Once pitched my wee tent in a stone circle...

Sadly not a real one :D if you've been at the cafe/gallery in Torphins you'll know it :D

Don't know why, but bivving in a cave is a strange experience. Snake/spider fear maybe,

Hmm fairly interested in trying out a 'cave bivi' - specifically the inchnadamph bone caves on the west coast... Must do some research!

Flight back to uk from Norway was overbooked so we were forced to spend a night in a luxury hotel.
After six weeks hiking and climbing we made full use of the en suite but found it impossible to sleep in the beds so slept on the floor.

Ive kipped in a few church yards and once in a graveyard. That was a little bit special.
