probably my hammock set up , I get the best sleep these days when off the ground , probably age related .

I’ve also enjoyed being in the bivvy set up .

got another tent, a tarp set up and another bivvy set up to try yet - keep watching

Nice, what sort of weight are they, also would walking poles do instead ?

We have got a tarp tent up in the garden which my son and wife have been sleeping in,while I've been working. It's made up from a DD hammocks Xl tarp.

If you haven't already seen him, check out Papa Hiker on Youtube, tarp origami at it's best.

lightweight , poles are not bad but can be switched out for walking poles . As with many old tents they are woven ground sheets and the inners have their fair share of exploded insects on them .

With a quick fabsil the fly sheets will make great lightweight tarps .....

Lichfield Ranger 3 and a Vango Eastwind fly sheet.....

You really do have a problem, Rob.
