Thats going to be a pain.. and keeping it dry....



Not a bad Idea , we normally finish setting up about midday , so some time around that... I am wondering about looking for a different clearing this time

Ok do you want to give me a bell when your finished and I can meet you at the beginning of the track if you like?

Setup my Hammock and Tarp in the back garden, "primarily" to setup my Snugpak Underquilt so that I will hopefully be toasty warm at the December Xmas meet.

Anyway I couldn't pitch my DD XL tarp the normal way (long edge parallel to ridge line) so had a go at see if it would work the other way. Pictures below show how successful or not this was, couldn't peg so tarp is a bit loose.

Thanks for the link Mr Soldier and SJS

I have nothing booked for next weekend so was going to head over to the spot in rendlesham I first went to with Stu and you guys when I was ill (LOL) unless anyone knows a better place in the rendlesham area for testing. Was thinking about getting an early start Saturday morning as I am not sure how this new set up works and reckon I would struggle like hell in the dark if I went Friday Night, then spend the day having a play with some tarp set ups and maybe cook some lunch stealth like and generally have a play with some kit etc. I want to get familiar with everything before I go out and have to set up in the dark.

I want to get totally sorted so I know what I'm doing for the monthly meets. If anyone would like to join me, the company would be nice. If my sleep mat turns up this week from Outdoor GB, and I am happy with my set up, I might stay out Saturday night and wander back Sunday morning.

Count me in, buddy! I'll send you my number again by PM (it's been a long time so I doubt you'd remember it... we've even moved since then anyway)

 

[SJStuart]

If you are about and want to stay out sat night, then I will too, sleep mat or not. Would be good to catch up.

I have several sleep mats, any one of which you're welcome to use

Couple of months ago I did popcorn with a banana syrup (made using molasses and demerera, with - of course - a couple of bananas mashed up in there). Was delicious!

There is only one thing to have with pop corn........ BUTTER !! real proper butter mmmmmmm

 

[Big Stu 12]

I did a toffee one with honey on its own, and that worked... I am next thinking a Scotch toffee one.. may try that next

Cinnamon is good, the sugary sort you get on the donut stalls. Sweet chilli is good too

 

[Iambosscat]

I'm definitely a savoury person. never had much of a sweet tooth.

 

[Big Stu 12]

Chilli chocolate is nice as well......


Thinks..........Chilli Chocolate Pop Corn........
