Testing the Traditional kit Boone warm up

[Man of Tanith]

Look, I'm famous

Thanks for the great hosting and the invite in the first place

I liked the look of the Lavvu but its not the biggest of options. Needs more of a play to see if it can be pitched differently. I'd be interested to see the two buttoned together and see what cover it gives. But canvas is addictive.

No probs
When ya coming back?
The lavvu has potential I just need t dabble a bit more.

Apparently it can be pitched elliptically so that itis longer than it is wide. That way people over 5 ft 9 can fit in. i have one but have not tested this yet. I plan to put that right soon.

Must resist buying one tho

Keep me in mind when you're planning. Weekends are flexible, but in week need a few weeks notice to book time off.

Remind me to load up on midge spray, cream, candles, nets and tazers for the little biting b*****s

Caused by a mite infestation most likely - common on acer members as the picture shows. Weird things
