I'd like to get out at least once a month, even if its just a day or so's walking. Spend my first night out under tarp since leaving cadets. Build my stamina and kit towards a north-to-south traverse of Dartmoor sometime in 2014.

mine's my personal standard, a horizontal bi-coloured field of red over green with an overlaid black hawthorn leaf. Quite exactly why I have (or would need) my own flag is still a mystery, even to me...
