I guess I can go with less, just mines to play and practice some skills with too.

Nice little setup mate, amazing when ya cut the crap what you can do with. Can't see it on mine but I have a USGI mug and stove nested inside the bottle pouch... I don't really need the pouch, just keeps the soot and crap off
my bag till I clean it properly lol.

Thanks, I seriously thought about using my bimble kit for a superlight overnighter in the summer. All that needs to be added is a packet of sausages and a blanket! I'm not entirely sure why I didn't go through with it. Maybe something to do next year.

I guessed you'd have a mug nested in with the bottle (is there much differrence between a US and Dutch bottle?). I sometimes swap out the kettle for the dutch army mug

For a walk around local woods / park I have a regatta packable 25l bag, containing,

water [at least 500ml]
couple of apples, maybe pears & oranges
hammock
tarp
water proofs
hat & gloves
pencils
5p plastic bags
dog poo bags / nappy bags
wood gas stove
12cm billy can inc packet rice/pasta, cup a soup, tea & coffee
large insulated cup
small insulated cup
2 sets of cutlery
bit of cloth to hold hot things
meth spirits
fire lighting kit
sometimes my mora [not often though]
frizbee
sticky velcro ball catch game
tennis balls and rackets
shuttle cock and rackets

I'll usually have the kids with me so having things to play with, to make a game and have a laugh is important.

It wouldn't take much more to make it into an overnight kit :) although the regatta pack straps are a bit pants, so I'm working on a method to attach it to a yoke set I've got lying around.
