Hi Ian,
I had convinced myself that I didn,t need a underblanket as I have managed for so long without one, but now the deadline is near I am starting to doubt my decision.
OK I have weakened, Please can I have one large and two small, I have cheque book and stamped envelope standingby.
Cheers P@ul

Hey, the larger one looks interesting! Though I think £55.34 is a high price for me, so I definately have some questions to consider if it's worth buying for me.
Is it possible to sleep diagonally ( so that you sleep almost flat) with this underblanket ?
Do you think it would keep you warm on the underside even in winter ? For example at -10 degress Celcius.
Is it good long lasting quality ?
These questions asked I think it looks like a great piece of kit on the pictures, brilliant that this could be designed and offered here on bcuk.
I slept in the group buy hammock and mosquito net in sicily a week ago while the others slept on the ground and i must say it was a real luxoury
I sleep so well in hammocks! I'm glad I've followed into the hammock madness over here This underblanket would be a nice addition, that's sure.

Well there are only two people who can answer your first two questions and they are the people who reviewed it. [I personally haven't tried it out yet]
With regard your third question, ask me again in 5 years time.
Ian.

Postage to you will be quite a bit extra too.
gunnix said:
With the longer one, yes. If attached the way I described you can actually turn the blanket a little as well so it is at the same angle.
gunnix said:
Provided your sleeping bag etc is up to it I would say yes but at those temperatures I would have a thermarest with me as well on the first few trips until I was completely sure. I have slept at close to that temperature with a thermarest in the sleeping bag and I think the underblanket provides more insulation so it should work but at those temperatures you want a back up plan.
gunnix said:
I obviously depends on your treatment of the blanket but if you are not too rough with it it should last okay. I would expect it to last as long as your sleeping bag lasts you.
Hope that helps
Gunnix,
I am very sorry for being so short with you. Its been one of those days I'm afraid.
The all in price to Holland was £59.99 so I would imagine it would be the same to Belgium and I believe Magikelly has answered your other questions.
The reason I havent used it yet was that I wanted to get some reviews done on it, because a review done by myself would have been rather biased.
Hope that answers all your questions.
Ian.

That was not being short with someone. You should see some of the posts I deleted before posting on various group buy threads. My favourite ones are the "I've not read the whole thread but how much are they etc etc" The amount of times I have typed "Well if you can't be bothered to read the thread I can't be bothered to repeat myself" but deleted it before posting.None of this of course is relevant to Gunnix who was asking a question that had not been fully addressed before. I just thought it was funny you thought your response was abrupt when it seemed to me perfectly pleasant.
It's all starting to tell on me John, glad I didn't wait for 50 orders. You know, youv'e missed your calling, you should have been a diplomat. Still remember your reply to Patrick.
Ian.
Ian.
Ok thanks for the answers, looks great, but just don't have the money right now, maybe if they're sold again in some months.
Sorry if my questions were annoying, since I've only read the whole thread twice before asking. A third time might have been necessary. Just don't want to be in for surprises if I buy something on the internet.

Sorry to be a complete pain in the a***e but I had a look in the list of people who have ordered and see that my name is not on it. Just incase the order is not compete I'd thought I better say. Again, sorry.
Cheers
Cheers
