Think its a special ops type work mat when you want to be sure you dont leave anything behind to give away the fact you were there. pull the cord and everything is gathered up + its waterproof to work on.

Edit: Mike beat me to it

Right, confession time. I tracked down the seller, and bought one of these ten minutes after I saw this thread...

And now I've got it, I dont have clue what to do with it..:puppy_dog

I made something very similar to that 'getway mat' using ripstop nylon. It was more an idea of having a large [ish] ground sheet/ picnic blanket I could grab a couple of cord and pull closed.

I remember seeing an old couple at an outdoor theatre once who laid down his picnic blanket and at the end of the show simply gathered all the corners slung it over his back and walked off - very quick to pack up :) everyone else was still faffing around putting things away into neat continers/ backpacks. Admittdley not very good if you still have a half full cup of tea sitting on the blanket but there you go.

I thought the guy had had two of them. I believe it can be used as a tarp, poncho, sleeping bag/cover or just a warm blanket. I'm watching the other one I may have it at the end of the auction listing.

He said he had a few, but flogged em all within 48 hours. Apparently hes got 40 watchers....

nice enough guy to deal with/
