All great advice chaps, in Lucys defence , she will by her own admission , not have the most comprehensive kit , which between us we can sort .
A couple of other factors were, that she was getting over a nasty chest infection, she had lost a bit of weight due to that and the stress she had been under , finishing her course work and holding down a full time job , also her proper walking boots were wet , so she wore steelys !
I did offer her a sleep mat , but being as hard as nails she refused, and finally she does not drink alcohol from one meet to the next , and we all know what that can do .
As said before some valuable lessons learned from the experience, it turned out ok ! and we must ensure it never happens again .
Hers too good a member of the gang to lose !!
