It looked a nice place to camp. I prefer to park up and sleep in quiet, but free places all over the region. I also tend to steer clear of the well-trodden paths and routes, so prefer to just pick a mountain and trek straight up it. I find that way, I'm probably one of the first to be up there in years, and always have the whole high regions to myself. Your walk looked devoid of others and the tarns on top just shouted out for images. Maybe I'll try that area for some days. I hate campsites, but at least that one you were in was fairly empty ( probably mad in summer though!🙂). I was waiting for that smoking van to blow up or turn into a blazing inferno! 😂

Have you thought about a cheap awning ? Until I get a proper one with my conversion, I have been using two heavy suction cups with eyes on them attached to the roof on one side at either end with ' s ' attachments on them, connected to the eyelets of a 3m x 3m clear plastic tarpauline and at the other side attached to two collapsible 2m tentpoles with guy ropes attached to the spikes at the top as well as the eyelets, then pegged out at the ground. The whole set up was £60 on amazon ( 3 purchase items).

Oven bottom muffins, and Panini - I must remember those hand gestures, adds a whole new dimension to life - I might chase the Mrs around later this tonight asking which one she prefers. If I offered any photographic advice.

I don't use them (I should) because when I'm working professionally (weddings etc) I tend to find straps restrictive, but I do agree that when I'm out walking that I need something.
