Seems there's 2 skjolds one in north one in south!

As always, plenty of contradicting weather reports!

I googled 'skjord norway weather' and went through the links on the first page. But your forcast I like better, lets stick with that lol! Im trying to find some live cams in the area to see if there's much snow around.

Just when I thought id cracked what I was taking, quick check on the weather and I cant see any snow just wet!wet!wet! Is there any permanent snow on location, Ive been looking at weather & webcams for Skjold, is this the closest village? Maybe I should consider decent waterproofs after all...

maybe we should contact the local store and ask them to stock up lol!

Cheers Wayland, ill check it out:)

I just want to get it done now, so I can chill and look forward to the trip:) Nearly there I will prob' book extra buggage as I dont fancy getting stung at check for over size, which is my main problem not weight. Ha, all good though!

them prices are per each way so if get stopped on way back another possible £75/£55 if not booking extra in advance

My weight should be under all together, but I cant get the the dimensions to even close with KLM as I will be strapping lots to the outside so will be classed as over size & I spoke to both airlines today, Norwegian is really cheap for oversize baggage, but KLM on the other hand are really...

So you will have to pay extra Wayland?

I am there a few nights before, so need a bag before the course. How you getting on Chris, nearly there?

Any one who has managed to keep within weight/size restrictions for both airlines I would really like to know how you done it Pleeeeeeaaaaaaaase!!!!!;) I am just about ready to pay for extra baggage :(

If thats the case I will fill my hand luggage with rations as thats what is tipping my weight right over, maybe I should contact the airlines just to be sure. I dont want security tearing them up to see whats inside them:confused:, they cost a fortune as it is!:rolleyes:

Would bringing ration packs in my carry on luggage cause any kind of issue? Is food allowed in general, I know liquid/water etc is not exepted over 100ml.

Yes, I'm not sure I'd call this packing lark fun, but I suppose ill laugh about it one day, maybe! I've decided to go for a new tactic, buy everything new, put it all on the credit card before it spontaneously combusts, worry about it when I get back, and spend the next 300 million years paying...

Ducky, just PM you.

Exellent, Ive just got a bivi and tarp, as long as its set up in a bit of shelter, trees etc I should be ok for the few days before, Have you got any maps yet, Ive just started to look for some, do you know what one we need to get us from airport towards course, assuming thats what your planning?

Yes, I only said MOLLE because i couldnt think of a better word to describe, but just some webbing sewn to srap stuff will do fine.

Ducky, what set up you using for the days before the course, do you know how many of us are there the same time as us before the course ?

One thing ive got is plenty of garbage bags, and their light lol!
