Hope all goes well Lol.......enjoy
.....is your mate tagging along with you?
I don't have any...........
I was solo with a tarp and bivvi.
It was a site I would not have normally chosen (right on a portage pontoon by a weir), but it was early in the season, mid week, and when I got there, there was no one, not for hours (nor any houses for miles?).
On the opposite bank (the Essex shore) was/is a small nature reserve, and behind me a large willow plantation....lots of boring photos below, coz I was told......................
Initially very warm in the night, stripped off a layer, then it cooled right down, but slept REALLY well, despite the condensation now dripping off the tarp!!
Plastic...you get wet inside: cotton on the outside........ mmm, something odd there???
Stunningly pretty paddle home to launch point a.bout 3 hrs
Kit :
tarp/bivi, twig/trangia burner, water filter, Outer surplus modular bag, Sting rucksack and a few other bits......like a canoe and a couple of blades....
It's long time since I have been out in the canoe, took a bit of acclimatising, and on Thursday there was a stiff breeze coming from the starboard bow....or translates, it was getting to be hard work!!........but very beautiful with the burgeoning new growth.
1st piccy: sleeping arrangement
Also the river level was up a few inches which would allow me to paddle over a little regulator weir, and this river is inundated with weir pools and their portages, so one less would be welcome!
2nd: parked "on" the pontoon where I camped
3rd: sleeping arrangement
4th: kitchen
5th: sunset
6/7th: morning
9th: the weir lulling me to sleep
That raised river level bit was going to bite me on the return as during the night, someone pulled the plug and the drop in levels stuffed me for going UP the regulator weir!!
The early paddle back was blissful, river to myself. A warm sunny day, all sorts of birds, kites, buzzards and a wren in the tarp awning entrance to wake me up.............
(that's more than enough from this.........)
In the words of someone else,,, pictures please 
nice pictures
