Hey,
I got the weekend off work
All I need now is a tarp I think.
Cheers Chris, I may have to take you up on that if mine doesn't arrive on time.
I know its not very bushcrafty but I have decided to bring a duvet, haha. That should sort out the sleeping bag problem.
Also, I bought a self inflating sleeping mat in Millets the other day for only a tenner. Its a short one so it packs up real small. 1200cm long I think.
So yeah, I will be there on Saturday.
