Depends on the type of camping you are intending on doing ? A bivvy will be quicker to erect but will be heavier and bulkier to carry than a normal camping tent. Also depending on time of year single skin bivvies can be terrible for condensation where as most camping tents are twinned skin. Plenty of extras for bivvies available now so you can do add ons, skull caps porches, different types of doors etc.

Cracked me up that did Had a conversation with some lad on a football forum a while back and I said if I was in another country whether that is on holiday or by some slim chance emigrated I would embrace that culture, eat their food etc. Him and another couple of belters actually said it was racist as the expectancy was for foreigners to do the same when they came here, I thought they were joking but they were deadly serious!

Somewhere a bit different today out of my comfort zone

Bit rich that

Rich Lives Matter as well jukel123............shame on you

Well that was my experience and that of many others, sorry it didn't fit in with whatever narrative you had yesterday.

To quote Donald Trump "I have no idea what you are on about and I don't think you have either" so I will bow to your superior knowledge and give you a pacifying thumbs up

So all we've done is gone around in circles as now I'm going to say exactly what I said on the other thread but more bluntly, stop pissing the UK tax payers money up a wall. Tax Bezos 99% and you and I would still be exactly the same, wages would be the same, we'd still have to wait 6 months for a doctors appointment etc etc, the only change would be Amazon would sod off out of the UK and 75,000 people would be out of a job. And you still haven't defined rich or poor ?
-
Where did I say tax everyone equally ? I don't think taxing "wealthy" people "until the pips squeak" will have anything other than a negative effect. Again define poor, you havent explained what you consider rich yet you just keep throwing out these words with no context ? The man with no mortgage living in a £200k house or a man living in a £1 million pound house mortgaged to the hilt ? Like I say all relative. I'm no financial expert but for the record I think nobody should be paying tax earning below 25k pa, 40% should be the max anyone is taxed regardless off income or wealth a

I nearly didnt bother responding after I saw "People may have been protesting about high levels of black immigration" as IMHO the protests were a multitude of things but as I was also a great believer in "taxing the rich until the pips squeak" I thought I would drop in my two pennethworth . Firstly define "rich" and "wealth", Inherited wealth or earned wealth? Inherited wealth...............To put it in to perspective I have a mate who went to university with the son of a Baron. In conversation I mentioned how it must be great to be that wealthy and he said not sure its that great on

It was a combination of things, again I think you knew that. I keep losing a grasp of the point you are attempting to debate so Im out as well, it was fun whilst it lasted
-
Exactly, who knows. I believe and I think you knew this, Wilfs point was the irony of funding these things when our own country is slowly losing its culture and identity. Not sure what labour are promising, didnt Starmer promise not to touch the pensioners winter payments?
-
Do you think if the taxation of his business wasn't so high it may have continued?
-
No thats the plan

Not a little Britain a Great Britain. A morally principled Britain that leads the world in everything we are good at. A country that can still be a globally big player without the need to line the pockets of corrupt and war mongering country's politicians whilst their people and ours remain oppressed and beaten down.

"Fat" right is that a new thing ?

I understand the reasons why foreign aid is given, it doesn't mean I have to agree to be happy funding it. Whether its for the Taliban Equality and Diversity training or some corrupt politician to line the pockets of a foreign government so he can make millions on a dodgy PPE contract, all British tax payers money should be used for the safety and well being of the people of this country first and foremost.
-
I must be naive then as Im not sure if we stopped funding the local craftsmen in Shenzhen province in China to foster dialogue that the boat crossings would get worse.
-
Oh that makes it all ok then. I can sleep easier knowing we are the lowest spenders whilst my hard earned tax goes off Ethiopia to fund a girl band
-
Correct, but presently 54.2% of the UK population are on benefits, so they are not and its unsustainable. And whilst the other 45.8% are getting hammered our governments are handing over £353 million to the Taliban in Afghanistan.
-
Taxation is a very good idea when used fairly. Now if we stopped using it to fund anti-congestion measures in Kuala Lumpur, flood prevention in Mexico City or the all-female Chinese opera in Shanghai and lets not forget the £8million plus per day on the holiday inn mob we may be seeing things a bit differently in this country.
-
4 million less people in the country probably had something to do with that!

GB News reporting a chap 6 months into his sentence of involvement in a machete killing being released. New laws for extreme misogyny being classed as terrorism considered by Labour as well. Unfortunately nobody can define "extreme misogyny" within the government so another "grey" law. No more jokes about women staying home and doing the dishes, I give this site 3 months

Wave after wave of stories about jail sentences on my news feed from the MSM but those poor kids seem to have been forgotten. Bloke in Bristol just got 25 months for saying to a copper “You horrible c****, I hope it’s your f****** kids next mate" literally charged with nothing else from the reports in the local paper but he was "acting aggressively" *allegedly* (I believe you have to add that now in case they come for you). Katie Hopkins nails it again Katie Hopkins. The INSANE sentencing of ‘protestors’. We live in irrational times. Listen: (youtube.com)

And there are plenty of other countries worse than ours.......................................see I took a positive out of a negative
