Not been on for a while but i've not been idle. I just ordered a Dutch Hooped Bivi for an upcoming wildcamp. I'll be travelling on a motorcycle and just kipping down overnight where ever I find a suitable spot. Right now i'm trying to cut down the weight of my kit. Aside from the bivi I have a Snugp...

I've just got back from an overnight wild camp out in North Yorkshire. I took a Hexi cooker in the bottom of my bag just in case but the main cooker was a Vango Portable Gas Burner (screw on type) and a Coleman C500 gas canister. I cooked my meals in a small aluminium cook pot that I picked up from ...

Just got back from Germany where I picked up a very nice little Opinel #7. Lidl had lots of stuff in. Eneloop type batteries 4xAA for 3.99 Emergency Candles for .50c Unfortunately I couldn't pickup too much as my funds wouldn't stretch too far but for sure next time I go it'll be with a fair amount ...

Waiting on a British Army Issue Sleeping Bag Liner. Used my eBay Nectar points to cover the cost so it's essentially a freebie :P I picked up a lightweight packable liner from Trespass but it doesn't seem to be too big. I'm 5' 5" and barely fit into it so hopefully an ex-army one will be a bit ...

Not so much a prep but waiting in for Hermes coming with my Baofeng VHF radio. Will be programming it up later hopefully.

Gonna be my first time back on air in over 10 years.

So now i've got Sleeping Bag / Bivvy / Liner / Inflatable Mat / Foam Mat. Should I put the whole combo together in one stuff/compression sack or should I keep it all in their separate stuff sacks? The foam mat is not that important but as I have it, it could be used as another layer to keep the grou...

Got one on order. Found a polycotton one from Trespass for £5.99 so that'll do me nicely. I'm going to Germany for a week very shortly so i'll take this along to doss in instead of the hotel sheets. If the story recounted earlier is anything to go by, I don't want to sleeping in sheets with stains f...

If you want to keep your sleeping bag clean and make it last longer then a liner is a must. Looks like it might be a worthwhile investment then. Given their relatively low price i'll pick up when I can. You will however have endless nightmares where you have your legs tied together (kidnapped, bung...

Does anybody use a Sleeping Bag Liner at all?

I'm a cold ...
