    Advice on 4 season sleeping bag

    Take a look at this site, http://www.ultralightoutdoorgear.co.uk/ They have the best selection of bags on the net, the Rab Neutrino are waterproof (to an extent) and are top notch for the money!

    Fear of the dark

    One of the best ways I have found of beating the fear of the bogeyman is to have a skin full before walking or camping in spooky areas! I used to walk right through the hardwick park Estate and right past Bess Of Hardwick's front door when coming home from a girlfriends house and even though it...

    trangia case

    Ah yes, Baggins! They made some brilliant stuff but same as a lot of small (and large) British outdoor companies from the 70s and 80s they went bust...Very sad! I used to keep my Trangia in an old woolly hat to stop it from rattling about in my pack...If that helps?

    Cheap Terra Nova comp 1 tent!

    I have a friend whose cousin works at TN (I only live 3 miles from the factory!) and she told us that, considering the price the Ultra sells really well, but I personally think its a bit expensive for a one man tent! Its a pity that most of TNs tents are made in China now, mind you looking at...

    Well here a scary story with a difference...It will make you laugh! My old friend John Bowie (yes thats his real name!) used to do a lot of night navigation walks in the Scottish Highlands and one night, around 1 am, whilst walking in a group miles from civilisation they came across a lone...

    Do Everything Trousers

    I think fjallraven are expensive for what they are especially considering that you have to faff about with the unfinished legs! A cheaper option would be trousers from Seeland, they are superb!

    New Primus ETA Stove!

    After carrying a Trangia (with gas burner) for years I do not think this little system is weighty at all (never could understand what all the fuss is about Titanium!) at least everything you need is in one neat little package! By the way, it is actually smaller in the flesh than it looks in the...

    Why is Ray mears woodlore gear so expensive?

    I will explain myself here, I get pulled up (by a few) on my fishing forum because I spend so much on quality tackle (a few think i'm bragging, but there you go!) and because of the way I was brought up (mum is an M&S Freak! lol) My motto is buy cheap buy twice! What I am getting at is the fact...

    Why is Ray mears woodlore gear so expensive?

    Don't really understand that question at all...I know when something looks more expensive than it is mate, or are you just trying to be clever?
