    Yellowstone Pac-Flat.

    Anyone tried these out, they're very cheap. I was thinking about one for light camping/fishing. They seem to get a lot of good reviews. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Yellowstone-BB002-Pac-Flat-BBQ-Silver/dp/B00AOLGPEU/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_S_nC?ie=UTF8&colid=1JNVDEBPDJ7IO&coliid=I2HUFF2DBDRTKL

    Reliable folding shovel.

    I've been looking online until my eyes glazed over for a decent folding shovel. Lots of them look a bit Fisher-Price so I was wondering what experience you've had in this field,so to speak. I've heard that the German ex-military are good but heavy. Any suggestions please?

    Traditional fabrics

    Hi guys I'm new to the forum and I've noticed something. Lots of folk here seem to favour wool and cotton clothing. On a carp fishing/camping forum I'm involved in everybody says an emphatic NO to using natural fibres like wool or cotton and plump for microfibre and acrylic etc. fibres instead...
