Well, I finally managed to get out for my first night ever in a hammock! I packed my 40L rucksack (waaaaay too small for everything lol, but I was determined!) and headed out to a spot I've known for years after growing up here...what I saw when I got there however, gave me a bit of a shock

(Beware, I probably should have shortened it more, too much of me blethering lol!!)
Eventually managed to find somewhere to hang for the night, and yes I've missed out a whole lot of things I should have mentioned about hammocking with a disability, but I'm new to this whole youtubing vblog thingy lol! It's as much of a learning process as the bushcrafting...but at least I know what sort of things to do next time
Suffice to say I had an awesome time with the dog...the most difficult challenge I encountered was actually walking to the spot - I use a walking stick & had to park as close as I could which I hate having to do, and I would have liked to go further but couldn't as I was in a fair bit of pain. Anyway, I learned a lot about what I could change while out there which is always beneficial.
Any advice would be well appreciated!
