    90 ptn sleeping bag or the British Army FESCA Modular Sleep System MEDIUM only

    Always been a big fan of centre zips (hate mummy bags or side zips in the middle of the night). Owned a 90 ptn for many many years but should I upgrade to the FESCA medium bag ? Is there any benefits weight, pack size, just looking at the medium that’s all

    News sources

    Our news breeds fear and stress. It’s nothing like it used to be eg, 1980s. It’s also amazing for you and me how chilled/ calmer you feel just not watching the news and choose what you what you want to read. Also the problem is it’s on 24hours a day Try it for a few days

    The first book is more for everyone. The second more for children but still useful eg the matchbox survival explained in a couple of pages. Good basic skills.
