TENT

The new tent has arrived, I decided to go for the Vango Banshee 200 at 1.8kg

It pitches in 10 mins (I have tested in the back garden), hopefully I can get it down to 5 mins.
I also got a new lightweight stove to heat my beans!!

I'll try to post some pics of the tent later.

Please keep sponsoring me at www.justgiving.com/jameskirkbride

also I will be doing the Workington to Keswick walk on sunday as part of my training.
