    Anyone into tent camping?

    But surely that's the romance of camping or safari! I do hope the basin was a folding canvas one.

    Anyone into tent camping?

    I still have a foam sleeping mat but my hips would never forgive me should I use it in anger. I would use it if I had to hike rather than drive. That or gather bracken, heather or leave as insulation and a bed then sleep under a tarp or shelter. But I find it takes quite a while to gather enough...

    Anyone into tent camping?

    I hear what you are saying Big Cat I have to say I now use an inflatable sleeping mat on a safari cot bed to ease the back issue. Quite happy to rough it on the floor when needed but it aches for the next few days when back at work so I found this just easier. No good for hiking but I tend to...

    Anyone into tent camping?

    Three to four times a year on average, one full week and then smaller long weekend trips I guess and the odd night when an extra activity is thought of. November is very cold so I only do one night then and in early May the early bird song is rather loud but great to hear. My camps are not as...

    ;) Very true Blue Train, my own view is life is a great big adventure and it is how you look at the things that come your way then make the most of them. Having travelled the globe in all sorts of terrain and climates one of my happiest times was being with my wife and daughter ( she was...

    Let's See Your Watches! The Vintage Watch Thread.

    My grandfathers old wristwatch, which I wear quite often although one shank has worn, which prevents me from wearing all the time.

    The Humble Anorak.....

    @ WDW, the film is an old 1960's comedy, should you ever get the chance to watch. Norman Wisdom is an acquired taste though. I do like the thought of your blue one with woolly hat and mitts though. I also like the dark tan of Sean Bean's top in the age of heroes if you know who stocks those? I...

    That looks pretty cool WDW, reminds me of Norman Wisdon in the Bulldog breed, really made me want one as a child.

    Well Greencanoes, I know have the book, interesting reading, some I already have read before but I have found that going old basics is a good thing. Thanks for the tip.

    A new Avro Lancaster restoration - to FLYING condition!

    Ditto stand by, I loved model kits as a child, making dioramas with tanks and half tracks. Funny thing when my wife was expecting I was convinced she was having a boy so I brought an air fix RAF watch tower and paint , sorted out the airffix RAF figures from my mothers loft to paint and make a...
