Hi ken, I had a similar problem first time I slept in a hammock. Did you have the hammock strung taut or was there some slack? That seemed to be the key for me, once I loosened it off so there was...

Hey Steve, what's in the 72 hour kit? I can see the candle, fire steel, compass etc but some of the stuff in bags I cant make out
I had exactly the same issue with mine initially. I noticed at first that the screw between the cap and base wasn't knitting properly, but after a few firm twists of making sure it went on straight...
Thanks for having us Ivan, despite the downpour its still a beautiful place. It was great to see it like this as next time I come the season will have changed, everything will be green and it will be...
Sounds interesting Dave, i'll have to check my diary at work tomorrow.
Oo forgot to post this earlier in the week...snugpak uq, large techlok, peanut lighter, uco mini and...nope, that's it
Sshhh, swmbo hasn't clicked onto that yet!
I've been sitting mine inside a bush buddy and using that as the pot stand, seems to be a good windshield too
Had a splurge in millets today, bogof on socks, £10 off a petzl e light and a wooly hat for my daughter
Hi Matt, I liked the Whitebox stove you showed me so I ordered one from backpacking light. Got delivered today, very nice bit of kit!
No worries mate, I'm not in any hurry. Just get better
No problem, and welcome! It was steve that spotted these awesome tiffin kits. I think he has a connection with a local supplier :)
Hi, did you mean me?? First on a google search was this sitewww.lunchboxes.com
Good to hear your on the mend
Arktis smock, highlander 25 ltr daysack and a millbank bag. I must be blessed swmbo never blinks an eye at any of my purchases!
Ah yea, I like that idea!

Well, I got a new coat and what a coat it is!! Just delivered today straight from Endicotts endicotts.co.uk
You know it makes sense Martin... Get one of these too zippo-fuel-canister
I bought one for my wife last year. It's a bit of a pain to fill using the supplied plastic bottle but it works a charm. I may be slightly overfilling it but it stays hot for hours, well over the...
I went shopping at endicotts today too, albeit over the phone. New jacket, day sack and a millbank bag.
What jakob said ;)
I knew weight wise it was ok, was really curious about ability to knot, tie to trees and not slip...that type of thing.
Theres a few sites I like:-
lakelandbushcraft.co.uk/
thebushcraftstore.co.uk
heinnie.com
And although endicotts site is so bad, I think that's half the charm.
Thanks for all the replies, I was a bit concerned that paracord wasn't going to cut it.
