Hopefully taking it out for a test/play tomorrow (if the rain holds off). Hopefully I've worked out how to get it ready to hang

I got a tarp from these guys too, all seems pretty good.

It looks pretty good to me: nice and simple. I've used a couple of different types, the latest being an Amazonas Traveller which I got for a quid at a car booty:

Apologies if you're a seasoned hammock user, but here's a couple of tips.

- don't pitch it too flat
- lie about 15 degrees askew in it. You'll lie flatter that way
- use a sleeping mat underneath you. Hammocks can be quite chilly underneath you because they compress your sleeping bag's insulation.
