I remember when i was 15 and went on a wild camp in the Goyt valley. One night i woke up absolutely shivering with the cold in a cheap sleeping bag. Had to put my camping stove on to keep warm for a while. Anyway when i woke up in the morning and opened the tent to find a winter wonderland of heavy snow. I learned from that experience.......Having the best gear is Wise

Yes And, it might cost a bit, but worth it in the end, and it may last a lifetime, all the best Pat

[@MrPianoKnee]

And the end still came too soon. Will watch again. Thanks for the insight and wealth of information. I know how wonderful a hot water bag can be. In New Zealand we called it a "hotty Bag." I spent Christmas in the Texas, desert mountains and the night temperature was below freezing. Though I was in the back country my vehicle was nearby along with my 50,000 BTU gas stove. But water was scarce and besides: no hotty bag. The mountains are made of rock, so rock is what used. It was about 8" x 10" x 2". I put it on the stove and turned up the flame until it was very hot but not quite unsafe. (No one came by at that time but had they done so, they would have thought that I was starving.) Then I rolled it up in an old terry cloth bath towel so it would release its heat at a reasonable rate. It helped greatly. Now you know why I had to smile when you pulled out your trusty hotty bag. Thanks so much Pat, for the good company and you will be pleased to know that you are just as great company the second time I watch. Take Care. ~Peter

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Hi Peter, yes a hotty, what a great bit of kit, so cheap and simple, but the benefits are wonderful. We have just been told were still not really allowed out camping due to Covid restrictions, so back to the pub shed for next couple of vidios, all the best Pat
