Call home and have someone there purchase the DD travel hammock and send it over to you, check it out HERE

I know what you mean about the food. When I went through Hampton Court I stopped and got a bite to eat at a local cafeteria. One of the items I grabbed I thought was a fruit pie but it ended up being a beef pie. Big disappointment. Anyway I broke off a piece of the pastry and tossed it out to the pigeons to eat. They came over took one peck apiece, and then ignored it. Ended up picking it up and disposing of it myself along with the rest of the pastry. It's bad when you can't even get the pigeons to eat it.

Welcome to the Colonies!!

I think most HAAB style hammocks like ENO (Eagles Nest Outfitters), Ticket To The Moon, Trek Light, Travel Hammock, etc, are rated at about 400 lbs.

i'm taking orders right now on the "warbonnet pre-order list" thread. a double layer of the 1.7 would be great for someone your size.

What?

British breakfast is awesome, baked beans, fried tomatoes, eggs, toast etc. For lunch you get fish and chips and a Guinness or two, and for dinner go to an Indian restaurant. Best Indian food on the planet is found in the UK. I'd take that any day over IHOP's, McDonald's and Appleby's.

I'm all over fried tomatoes, but at the Brit chow hall in one of the overseas places they had baked beans and STEWED tomatoes for breakfast. Ick. I was a big fan of the Indian dinners and the custard drizzled over the all the different kinds of pudding (which is actually bread...no idea why they insist on calling it pudding).

Anyway, the HH Safari Deluxe is rated to 350 lbs, and I bet you could get away with the 300 lbs versions as well - your call on how safe you feel in it. I've had over 250 lbs in my BULA rated at 200 lbs and it's still holding up fine.
