So here's everything I took with me (sort of). I decided to leave a few things at home and in hindsight could have left a few more bits at home.
I've been building this kit up for a while now through reading forum, blogs and using what I had and seeing how I got on with it. After 3 days in rainy wales (2 nights) I'm pretty happy with what I've got and how it works.
The "it worked really well bits":
Sleeping - Everything was spot on I think and I wouldn't change anything, Slept dry and warm for 2 nights.
Cooking - Really pleased with the set up the only change would be to make a new cone that stored inside the mug.
Carrying - The Wildcat bags were faultless
Water - TravelTap worked well if a little slow
Niggles:
Need to ditch the rucksack somehow.
Phone in Aquapak is awkward for taking photos
Need more Water carrying capability
Changes:
Take more coffee (2 per day isn't enough)
Really concentrate on how much food is needed (I ended up carrying some home again)
Leave the loo roll at home and take a 2nd Kleenex pack
Streamline my tools/spares kit
Maybe ditch the cosy for the smaller mug.
More Jelly Babies (ditch the M&Ms)
Didn't use the Hotties (it was May)
