@@frederickridall628hi I have tried it, but too much like a tent for me, perhaps I will show it on a video, The dd super light is 2.8x3 where the normal heavy tarp is 3x3 and it’s easier to tension in my opinion and efforts, Cheers Adrian

I really enjoy your videos …. they bring back memories . I know that area well and have been into the cave you mentioned several times ... the route to it can be dangerous when there is snow on the ground and the final access is by going down steps … folk lore has it that it goes all the way to The Cheviot … it does not . I reckon your Bivvy Location was but a couple of km from another favourite place of mine … a lone Rowan Tree surrounded by an anti Deer fence and at the base are a number of memorials ….. occasionally flowers are / were left at the location .

Oh you seem to have removed my comment correcting your pronunciation of the word Cheviot. As I explained,the word has only one "e" in it. Just say it how it's spelled Why are you so sensitive about this, you obviously don't come from the area, so you may not have known.

@@northumberlandmountainhopper no records of a comment that "never made it" I don't normally correct folks use of words ,but ,as the Cheviots mark most of the northern part of the English -Scottish border ,then I think it's only right to be clear. Think of the US actor Chevy Chase - the "chev" in Cheviots is the same. I think,as you're from the midlands you may be aware how the Welsh folk feel about their place names !
