lovely part of the world there Grimbo. You are very fortunate to have somewhere as nice as that close by you. I’m up’t North, and the closest places to me are either National Parks or Private woods which you aren’t able to doss down for the night legally….that said, if you get off the beaten track, you tend to get left alone…keep it up mate
OK I hadn’t seen or maybe don’t remember the other vids.I couldn’t remember from back in the 1980s if all the NATO troops had the same panchos.I never much cared for panchos in combat.I always chose to be wet rather than possibly tangled up with a sheet of vinyl and dead. Oh something just occurred to me. Something we were taught in The Corps (and I’m sure every other service) is to have at least one change of socks & underwear in your kit & a small bottle of field laundry soap.Hygiene is job 1
Yet another good vid Grimbo. Can you snap two of the UK military panchos together as you can American milspec panchos to expand the shelter? If not we tall, broad shouldered blokes can’t stretch out and get comfortable.
you could also use a large tripod frame with this too in a open area without the tall trees for the overhanging branch.
Next video please don’t put music under the video footage, or mix it in much softer. You have to strain your ears in order to what is being said!
I love ponchos nive set up
good vid

great vid what type of poncho is it
Great use of kit, quality vid and I look forward to watching more of yours 🙂
Very neat job. Those poncho’s have to be the most versatile bit of kit out there….Except maybe for the wool blanket.
nice one grimbo
