Also, Tenting in 't 'ills 'o Sheff'ld, isnt typically a gay activity as there is a shortage of soft toilet paper and nightclubs sporting Trancedance music. I rather think that a national treasure is more a fitting trubute to our Pat.

      Hi Andy yes a wet one but still very enjoyable, helped along with the Glenmorangie, how a little drop can turn a wet cold night into a great night out remembered for years to come. I prefer the Sherry Cask whisky, perhaps followed by the more peaty and smoky ones later to finish with, this means I will have to buy additional flasks now.

    Well done Pat.
    For water, I only collect from flowing streams and put a handkerchief over the end of the bottle. Then use water purifying tablets.
    For food, I would make a ham or beef sandwich for dinner. Then carry eggs in a egg box to go with my coffee for breakfast.
    Cheers man, take care 👍

      Hi for me ideal meal, ribeye steak, pasta and sauce and some fresh vegetables, probably steam pud, custard, a bottle of wine, whisky later on, ....great night's sleep in the Soulo, breakfast always porridge and golden syrup, loads of coffee.
      We obviously wildcamp differently, but both have a great time, thanks Pat

    You are spot on about how whisky and camping go together, a single malt is a must. For those on a budget Jack Daniels Tennessee Honey is a reasonable camp drink!

    Crickey pat that put some water down saying that you'd probably pitched in the worst place there for water run off & the ground just there is quite hard compared to the grassy bits further on top..you survived anyway lol.. That BeFree is a great piece of kit ain't it, water filtering became a chore with the sawyer but with that it's a breeze.. Those dehydrated meals are great but some are expensive I tend to go with the summit to eat or adventure food ones they're cheaper & tbh I really prefer them.. Can't believe you smashed one back as a starter lol & then a main I'm usually stuffed with one as a main meal, I don't know where you put it all lol..
    Well that was an experience for ya pat but a great one great area up there I love going to. tfs Andy.. PS try some JD tennessee honey I always carry a hip flask with some in for bed time purposes 😉

      Hi Andy, yes would of been better on the top but there was such a cold wind just wanted the shelter from the rocks, and the view was fantastic,like you say I survived, with a bit of help from the Glenmorangie.
      Really impressed with the Better water filter, so quick at filling my water bottles.
      As you,. ll know I love most drinks, first time I had JD Honey was when we bought a bottle for my son, had a taste, very smooth.
