    Great British Camp Out

    As many of us are doing during lockdown I thought it only right to test out the hammock stand I threw together for a quick over nighter in the worlds smallest garden. Please forgive the half finished nature but I was part way through doing an overhaul when time was called on my endeavour.

    I enjoyed the video. You're right with this lockdown we have to make due with camping in the back yard sometimes.

    Another quip I enjoyed, "The neighbors may think I'm a bit tapped in the napper." (knapper?) The internet doesn't know that phrase so it might just be a Nobby-ism or an Isle of Wight-ism. But as you said, "It's still camping." Thanks for the vid, Nobby. Always a hoot to hear from your isle.
    The game is the best teacher.

    Any of the boys stay in the tent? Thumbs up on your DIY hammock.

    I've been enjoying your YT vids while having all this time off. After owning it since late last year, I've finally been getting the hammock out for a few lunch and coffee afternoon camp outs.

    Best wishes from a little patch of woodland in Moray, Scotland.
