That's a nice looking rucksack. May I suggest the following: Karrimor SF Sabre 35 (£75) If you don't mind MTP camo, my choice however would be...
I'd suggest that you're pretty well set already, just throw an underblanket into the mix. I've used the DD Underblanket in temps down to -2 and it...
Mine's the standard, it has a huge opening to it which makes it rather easy to get in and out of. I dread to think how big the XT version is!
If you want a bivvi bag that will fit the 7cm mat inside then you can pretty much write off the Hunka XL as that's gonna be very very cosy! One of...
Many thanks, for your thoughts. I'm a bit nervous about the canvas and drying it if I'm honest as I don't have a very big garden to pitch a tent...
How are you finding that tent? I've been very tempted to get one for car camping!
Thanks for sharing, some lovely snaps of the 'shrooms and forest. I rather think you get more pleasure out of a trip when you pair things down to...

Wow, must have been amazing to see that unfolding. Guy Martin is a real character and refreshing to see a sports personality emerge who isn't...
I think Man of Tanith's earlier response on page one is about right. 30ltr for a daypack, 45ltr for a summer camp, 75ltr for a winter camp. With...
I wouldn't worry about it. I've used my British army bivvy many many times and seldom had issue with condensation. This is primarily down to the...
Apologies if my comments proved a little provocative. However, I enjoyed reading the response that it prompted and you make some good points. I...
