Going out with my two kids next weekend
There 1st proper wild camping trip
Had them to a few micro sites etc before and been camping since they were in nappy s
Only going for 1night
Don't know who's more excited me or the kids
Got my 1st pen knife when I was 5 from my grandad
He was a joiner and brought us all up around edges tools
My kids are older than that and they don't have them

I'm no longer on the tools but still keep my estwing and use it regularly
Might not some folks choice
But the used it for roofing
Fencing,gardening,camping,drunkenly...
Found it a bit warm myself

Good shirt over a good base layer
And you could always water proof it
There's nothing wrong with being obsessed. With land rovers
Both petrol and diesels have there own strength
Diesels are better for wadding deep water regularly
The defender petrols are ok as well
But I'd recommend a 200tdi diesel over all else
It always amazes me the lack of respect some people have when out and about

When at proper camp sites music can be a pain
Especially if you groups are about
But nothing better than a fiddle and a guitar
To make some music round a campfire...
I'm in agreement about the distance being hard
I've done long hikes with a full bergan and webbing and if ******* hurts
No matter how young and fit you are
Repeating it day after day without a group of people hurting just as much and moaning at the world and helping each other is almost...
Camped on these two last summer
Very basic and rangers were great
We're out with there kelly kettles having a brew etc
Didn't even mind that I had the worlds biggest tarp
