Hi All,
I had trouble writing directly back to the chap asking about fleshing
out his encampment, so please excuse the reprint of this information
which has appeared on the list before.
I should go through my data base and do a listing of ms which show
general camping equipment, eg. tressells, chest, cooking gear etc.
Watch this space...
