SOL emergency ultralight bivy (164g, XL)

Post by redefined_cycles »

I had planned to whack this on ebay as I had it on another classifieds thread earlier at a low enough price but not much interest.

I've taken it out to pack it away and turns out the kids have been playing with it and almost punctured it. Its a little mark about 6mm long but hasn't gone through.

If anyone wants it from here as an emergency shelter then its yours for £9 posted. I've even managed to pack it back into its bag and into the plastic (shop hanging) sleeve that it came sold with...

All proceeds might go to feed the bear, might not... Haven't decided. It's about the size of a fist (if you're well built and 6ft2)...

:lol: That's a very legitimate question... Erm... Won't answer it but I can tell you that if I break it (the wind) then need to restart with a fresh ablution etc...

Always a worry putting something diwn to use for praying as it might just fly off. Hence why I generally just pray on the grass/concrete etc (after doing my checks that some bozo (or BBC news watchers) might think I need punching up or worse, . When it gets colder though it can be a bit much for the forehead and hence thunking this through now about a multi-use prayer mat...
