    Recommend a YouTube Channel

    Going Solo I only came across this channel a few days ago and am really enjoying his content. It's not a huuge channel. He also has a website with his kit listed and recipes for camping. He cooks some delicious looking meals. https://www.youtube.com/@GoingSoloOutdoors...

    Thanks, I'll have to have a wander over to the posh end of South Wales and have a look in the charity shops there :lmao:

    Trekking poles

    Hi, I want to try some trekking poles. I don't have bad knees or anything, but I would like to keep it that way, and they can also be used for setting up a tarp etc. So any recommendations? Or anybody know of any good deals on a pair at the moment? I was looking at the Leki Voyager at £44, or...

    Karrimor SF Sabre 45

    I bought this pack recently after owning the Sabre 35 for a few months and I love it. Sorry, this is not an in depth review, I just wanted to share a couple of photos (yes, I'm the sado who took photos of his rucksack up Pen Y Fan :lmao: ) I also bought the side pouches but haven't tried them...

    How do warm blooded people cope

    I can't remember where I read it, think it was a sleeping bag manufacturers website that recommended contracting your muscles to create heat (70%+ of the energy is wasted as heat)

    Small Tent Purchase

    Well, I went ahead and ordered a Robens Arch 2 from Nevisport last night. I'm hoping it comes in the older red colour as pictured on the Nevisport website as opposed to the new blue colour but either way, it looks a great tent. I like that it has a larger vestibule to store kit or cook in if I...

    Small Tent Purchase

    I do actually like the look of that, and their other tents, which are more than what I want to pay. The only negative really is that it's an inner skin first tent which one of the things I like about the Vango is that it's outer first. How important is it that I get an outer first tent? Taking...

    Small Tent Purchase

    Thank you, I will check it out now. I believe the new Vango Banshees actually have 2 openings as opposed to the older ones with only 1 opening. I intend on using the tent for me and my 4 year old son which I think will be big enough. We are going to go to Go Outdoors tomorrow as they have a...

    Small Tent Purchase

    Hi, I'm looking at purchasing a modern lightweight tent. I think I have my heart set on the Vango Banshee 200 which I can get from Go Outdoors for £120~ I was also looking at the Vango Starav 200 as Ordnance Survey are currently selling them for £100 but think I prefer the Banshee although there...
