Evening all, few PC problems have stopped me getting on here for a bit. I wont be able to make any dates in Aug as SWMBO is related to half the world and they all decided to have parties in Aug. Shame as I have taken Bardster's advice and brought a couple of MORA knives and am in the process...

Thanks for all your responses, I think I'm going to give the webbing that came with the Hammock ago first off and see how far it stretches over night. There are also a lot of other good ideas thanks that I will look at trying if it all goes Pete Tong (as it normally does). Regards Darren

be careful if you wear it as a thong their teeth can half give you a nasty nip in the crown jewels.....So I'm told. Regards Darren

What do you use to hang you hammock up with? I have a DD Hammock with approx 4m each end of webbing, not used the hammock yet but this doesn't seem alot and was thinking of changing it. Regards Darren

I have just brought my first Tarp ready to set out into the great outdoors. My question is what length of paracord do you have to hang your tarp so that I'm not cutting new lengths everytime I go out. Regards Darren :thanks:

Evening all, just been reading through the Kent meet thread and was wondering if it would be possible to join in with the next meet as I am new and am looking for somewhere to start and gain some practical experience.

Hello Limaed, Thanks for the response. Just googled Wendover Woods and had a read, looks like a great place to take myself off and practice some new skills away from it all. regards Newbie
