you do know that tipis are traditionally made out of skins, right ? - for the discerning bunny (or squirell) hugger i reccomend a yurt instead - made out of felt ie wool

you could look at 3 mobile broadband- its arround 15 notes a month - not that expensive compared to bt line rental etc/broadband subscription - but coverage is spotty tho in some areas
another point - does your tipi have mains power ? - and if not how are you going to charge the laptop ?

Its now Thurs morning early and I may have missed you tufftie - but I add my good wishes to all the rest - it will be an experience - if I had my time again.... I wish I'd done that kind of thing instead of drinking and feeling trapped by life - go for it girl - enjoy every minute - life is short and choices get less Look forward to hearing from you again .........

AWW this is sad i haven't been on the site long yet it feels i'm losing a friend i don't really know the details of what adventure you're about to embark on but for me life is an adventure and i love it..... So you go girl, live everyday to the full and without regret and i'm sure you'll have the experience of a lifetime.
