Bit of a bargain

Today I started to buy my camping gear. I am OK for clothes, have my sleeping bag etc and today purchased a rucksack / bergen. £25 is all it cost. It appears to be very well made and is guaranteed for life. I have put my sleeping bag inside it, aswell as my thermarest, some clothes etc and will go out for as run with it tonight, just so I can get all the adjustments correct, all the straps in place and ensure it won't chafe when I get out at the weekend.

Looking forward to Saturday

Re: Bit of a bargain

Yep probably the Lakes or maybe the moors. Undecided as yet. Better that way I think as it ends up a surprise and John does not get to spoil my fun

Re: Bit of a bargain

My mate Rufus was in American Werewolf in London. He is the little boy with the balloon. He is scary himself now.

Re: Bit of a bargain

Though not as scary as the sequel.
By the way, how come he was attacked on the yorkshire moors, and the ambulance decided the nearest A&E was in London.
I know everything in the US of A is bigger - but wouldn't Jimmys have been a better choice?

Re: Bit of a bargain

Is it true S4C is introducing a Welsh Countdown? No vowels!
