No complaints from me though Kids are away and wifey and I have just got up. I went to the Spar around 9 for papers and hot breakfast baggettes while she made fresh coffee. Having a quick scan of the forum while she applies the pulling paint, then off to the pub for Sunday lunch May watch the GP this afters, or then again might use my boyish charms and talk her into a really early night
Why did I have kids again???

I've got one of those tents/bivi bags. Used it in anger twice, once on the grass at Bilbao docks and once on a rally. The docks was okay (no rain), but on the rally I realised there is nowhere to put your helmet and boots when it's tipping down with rain.

Yen,

yep, absolute superb tent, just no space, used it for about 3months last summer, not sure how much more use it will see, def need something bigger, at least something I can sit up in

I bought a Bivi off Ebay for £70 used it once, the most god awfull thing that i have ever slept in, terrible. Like sleeping in a coffin.

Put it back on Ebay and sold it to a Norwegian guy for £135 !!! best result i have ever had on Ebay.

Went and bought a nice Khyam tent, fantastic piece of kit, really good
