  Feedback:

We have had a lot of feedback in recent weeks about the site and the podcasts, so we thought we would share them with you.

People from all over the world are wanting to find out more about going lightweight and where they can get products and information from.

Please contact us is there's something you are after. You never know, we might know someone who can help!

The last one is here!

The last Bank Holiday Weekend of the year is looming, so it must be time to get the BBQ out? No? Too wet? Lets go camping instead ....

Like many we are hoping to step away from the PC for a while and remind ourselves what this backpacking malarky is all about. With a tanned, fit and glowing daughter recently returned from Mexico it reminds us that life is for the living, and that running away from this endless mountain of paper can be a 'good thing'!

It is my birthday in October and Rose has chosen to send me away to learn some sea going tips, so we can navigate across future rivers we intend to cross, seas of opportunity and oceans of new gear. However as our entry to the next OMM has also been accepted, it would appear that losing weight, getting fit and trying not to look lost on the hillside in Cumbria, is to be the major task for the next 2 months.

Whatever you do, here's hoping you enjoy that next few weeks and remember to get the most from the weather, while it is on our side.

All the best
