    Camping in trees?

    It was the set up on country file that gave me the idea! What did you use to make the tent waterproof as I see they come just as a mosquito net roof as standard? I like the idea of having a platform to lay about on as well, been trying to think of ways to make one myself but don't think I'd ever fully trust my homemade platform.

    Camping in trees?

    Yeah I saw them, was hoping to find something a bit cheaper to be honest. Also based in the UK would be good to save on shipping. Cheers anyways
  6. Does anyone know any products designed to spend the night up a tree? Needs to be big enough for 2 people and have some kind of roof. Was just going to sling a couple of hammocks up and stretch a tarp over for a roof but I imagine there are some sort of tree tents on the market somewhere?
  7. Nice one thanks for the replies
  8. I'm wanting to make a short lanyard from some unspliced climbing rope. What knot do people suggest to use to connect to it to my karabiner going through my D ring. I'm using a French prussik with a micro pulley for length adjustment, it's the other end I'm interested in. Cheers
  9. Just section felled one. My hands are all swollen from getting bits of their spikes stuck in my knuckles. Anyone had this problem before, I've had the same problem when working with blackthorn but nowhere near as bad as this!

    <p>Hi mate, thanks for replying about the pickup. Was just after a bit more info. Has it been serviced regularly? Have you had any problems with it? And of course...what kindve price are you looking for!? Cheers</p>

  11. Thanks for the reply but un-identified engine problems are a bit much for me, don't mind if it needs a bit of patching up but engine troubles are a different kettle of fish. Cheers anyways
  12. Thanks for the reply David, few questions...what age & mileage? When's it's next MOT due? What work has it needed to get through last MOT's? Is it a single cab?
  13. Hi, I'm looking for a cheapish pickup, anything up to £2000. Any make/model considered. Not looking for anything fancy, just something to put me on for a while. I'm based in Cumbria but would be willing to travel to collect. Anyone have something or know of someone who might? Cheers
  14. Has anyone done this course? Any feedback on how well it was run and whether it was worth it? Cheers
  15. Has anyone got any advice on the Yale XTC red or spearmint visibility wise. Is it worth paying the few extra quid for something a bit brighter? Cheers
  16. We've been keeping some interesting bits aside thinking they could be put to better use than firewood. Would anyone be interested in bits like these or know someone that would be? We are based in Carlisle.
  17. I'm after a copy of the 'art & science of practical rigging' if anyone's got one they don't use anymore? Willing to pay obviously. Cheers.
  18. I'm just about to start climbing and need to start getting some gear together. Any advice on a good climbing rope to start with and any advice on harnesses? Cheers
  19. I'm only just starting to get into climbing after working as a groundy for a few years and need some new boots, was told some boots aren't comfortable when your wearing spikes, has anyone got some advice on any boots to look at/avoid? Cheers
  20. Hi, I'm just starting out at climbing. Has anyone got any recommendations on some good starter kit and the best places to get it from? Cheers
