There seems to be a common theme here - start off with a cheapie to try then upgrade. I love my hammocks and won't sleep on the ground again. All I can add is if/when you try a hammock, plan to have some under-body insulation either an under-quilt or a sleep mat between the hammock and your sleepin...

Cheers Brambles, thanks for the tip. Book ordered. I notice he does a foraging book, have you read this one and do you recommend? Where we've moved to, there are sloes and these have been developing into a very nice sloe gin and I'm keen to do more with what's now in my plot, especially with turning...

Would love a Jetboil but I've got higher priorities, need a better inflatable mattress for starters. I can unders...

I've been living in a caravan and sleeping in a tent for a few months and life is made almost bearable by the Jetboil. I don't think there's much out there that can get 500ml boiled in such a quick time. Handy for a rapid cuppa and also good for boil in the bag food. My mate swears by them and they...

The Radio 4 Extra adaptation was very good, definite worth a listen if only for the 1930's bug out vehicle. Gripping story line throughout.

I realise hight is might as it goes buyt I am in quite an elevated location however I have the black mountain range in front and another range behind me. I’m not su...
