The pup and myself will be spending the night in Annalong wood tomorrow if anyone fancies it?

We will be waiting for a bit more sunshine. You know we are meant to have electrical storms tomorrow don't you? I love thunderstorms, always have, but I like them better when I am warm and dry, or at least will be able to get warm and dry after a short period.

Looks like the forecast is improving as the day goes on, I’ll play it by ear.

Was in two mind to go camping as my Sciatica was playing up.  When I got home from work the choice was made, the hammock & tarp etc which had been  ordered on Thursday night had arrived, happy days!!
First time in a hammock and I have to say that it was extremely comfortable and relatively easy to setup. Great night was had and weather was 100%.

Too true, yea the little bliters were out in the evening for sure but had the deet plastered on and also had a head net if they had got crazy bad.  Hammock (DD Frontline) has the net built in so it was all good in it, great job.
