    Introducing myself to England Mid meets

    Britton wood that's the one ^^ Once I get my kit all sorted (might be after new year now) would love to come along. Thought I'd get back into the forum to get to know everyone!

    Log shed

    Ooohh that is shed p0rn right there. Must be quite well insulated (bar the gaps between the wonky logs) because those logs are nice and thick!

    Homestead air fresheners - for men!

    In my student digs there was always spray air freshener in the Loo. Eventually, whenever you smelt that air freshener out of context (say in the lounge) it always smelt of poop. Bleh. I love candles, and incense. "Hippy" smell according to my housemates! But I do love filling my room with the...

    Introducing myself to England Mid meets

    Thanks :) I reckon Northampton way might be a bit far for me. Was looking more towards the Britton whatsit and Rough Close meets. Favouring whichever one it is that is by the peak district :)

    Fleece liners

    Fleece liners pack up quite big, compared to say a Silk liner. A silk liner will give you a lot more warmth than a fleece liner. These stats are of course using the liners as designed, in a sleeping bag. The wind chill would be my concern, silk is quite thin and may let cold air through. The...

    Cold Places

    Bollarks, I was really looking forward to some rainy damp cold scottish weather. Actually, this time last year me and Bloke we to the Trossachs and the temsps were pretty nice (6-10 degrees), just overcast- perfect!

    Parachute

    Sally, where did you get yours from? How much did you pay? I'm debating whether to risk it and stick together two poo ones for 12 quid each, or save up for a 60 quid one with minor repairs. I haven't really thought about structural changes- I thought I'd tackle any damage first (otherwise my...

    HELLO IVAN AND SPANDIT haha Yes Spandit, Bloke is also a Police officer so....... Rung Endicotts and they have "freddy Kruger" canopies for 12-15 quids, so could spend hours on the sewing machine fixing one or sticking two tgether. DAS opens tomorrow so I'll give them a ring as well.

    Hi Dave! Turbo I like your thinking! Checked Endicotts, nothing on there, and found the two pr7s on Ebay but I'll see if I can get the ones from Surplusplus or denbigh surplus first for about 25 :D

    Parachute

    Thanks for reply! I have been banned from eBay by HWMBO... but maybe I'll have a quick peek... Could you make a 40ft smaller by tying up the top before it goes up? Also about colours... Quite fancy a blue one if I can get my grubby paws on one, are there any unwritten camp site rules about...
