    Advice on 4 season sleeping bag

    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!

    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?

    Fear of the dark

    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!
