Nice bottle of beer. Greene King IPA.

I'm Interested, but no cash right now, maybe next month:) !

Mine!

I know when it's going to be windy, as I see all the big supply ships hiding in the bays up round here to shelter from the worst of it. A few years ago it got down to -20 for a week or so. The week after it was -10 and had loads of people commenting 'cor - it's cold isn't it?' I just thought...

The biggest sticking point I've found trawling the internet is what address is put on the driving licence? as without it apparently the licence is void or cannot be issued without a permenant address, and yes insurance cannot be issued without a fixed address. What do travelling folks do??? - do...

One thing that interests me with 'off grid living' / vanning [is that a real word!]/ boating just mobile living really, is the not having an address thing - no fixed abode. What do you put on your driving licence, how do you receive important communications etc. So far it seems people use PO...

My TW Sargasso tarp has little Velcro pockets at the corners which happily house a length of hanked up guyline, a very handy addition to a tarp design :) But I use the toggle an loop method for guylines, easy to have a shorter length of line with the ability to easily temporarily lengthen if...

For my ridgeline I've recently swapped to 1.8mm dyneema [the pink one - used to be throw line - the yellow one] as I've become a little more paranoid about stuff falling out of trees. It may just be a mind trick but I feel slightly safer with a beefier ridgeline [also a reason why ridgeline...

I hammock camp and tend to setup my tarp really quite high to get better views, this means I have a pretty long tarp to cover the ends properly.... sometimes with sticks to raise a corner... sometimes a longer distance between tree, which makes the hammock a bit bouncier - not an entirely...

Its not even that cold round me. Managed to sleep in the garden in the hammock with my daughter, didn't bother with a tarp as lovely clear skies. Daughter was pointing out the big dipper, I pointed out Cassiopeia. The wife said it'd be - 7 c, I think she was exaggerating a little! It did get a...
