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

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?
