    Hello from Scotland

    I live in the West of Scotland, near the whisky islands of Islay and Jura. I once made my living instructing in the hills but more recently I'm to be found in ambulances. Great job but i need space to decompress and I bikepack, canoe and walk to get away from it all. New to hammocks so lurking to learn.

    Mountain views are good for the soul....& getting to them is good for my waistline.

    When I first saw your forum name I was expecting saggy and wrinkly... but lets not go there!
    Had a cracking week hammocking my way up to Cape Wrath last year, itching to go back.
    From south of the border, welcome to the forum.
