What Is On Your Wish List ?

If you are meaning why do I not buy the 3m x 3m multi-cam tarp instead it is because I already have one that size in green.

This tarp would not be part of a lightweight set-up but it would be used in areas where I might need to be a bit more discreet.

This size tarp (3.5m x 3.5m) does give you 33% more cover & is only £10 more.

For my lightweight set-up I would probably be looking at the DD Superlight range or the Decathlon tarp you mentioned. :thumbsup:

I hope this explains why I intend to buy one my friend but as always I am happy to hear any suggestions you have as your knowledge & opinions are greatly appreciated. :)

I have been known to treat the tops of my boots belt line and cuffs of my trousers with permethrin to dissuade ticks but my number one insect enemy are horse flys. For mosquitos and midges you can just net up but horseflys will bite right through your clothing. They seem to prefer me as a staple food group and they damn well hurt!

I think they are more numerous down here in the South Boogie especially up on the south downs and the new forest and they can be quite large. I comparison the tics we found at last years summer meet were tiny little things

Well, I've always coveted the Robens Fairbanks tent, but could never afford one even second hand.....it's not like I needed another tent, and equally, I detest Sports Direct.............but, I came across a reseller on ebay, and for £179, I did recently buy a Gelert Navajo 4 tent............erm........:whistle:
