Hi, Welcome and enjoy.

You'll have no trouble getting the info you need on the forum.

Sounds good to me Al. I will get in touch by PM and we can arrange something.

Can anyone out there recommend a good head torch

alpkit gamma for the torch. I lived at the top of the Coquet valley for 5 years, its a great place. Good places for walks are Simonside, the Coquet valley above Alwinton and any of the FC land. Wild camping is usually tolerated unless you're on the live firing area on the ranges!

Thanks mate ill look into the torch been up Simonside and really liked it.

+1 for the gamma, can't beat it for the price.

Saw on the national BBC weather that Redesdale camp has had a foot of snow today. Quite glad I live somewhere less remote now!
