New tent

After a lot of saving, I bought myself a wonderful new tent for my summer backpacking. I'm sure it's a great investment - with a good tent I'll be happier staying outside rather than going to hostels all the time. I decided to buy a 2 man (so that people coming walking with me could fit) and that you could easily sit up in (or it gets a bit restrictive when the weather is bad). However, it's very lightweight material so still only weighs 1.7kg! Perfect for walking with :) Here's more info if anyone is interested.

I also don't have an excuse for carrying less than any men I go walking with anymore (not that I've had any help on my solo walks this year anyway!)
