  5. Habe alles abgebaut und im Auto verstaut. Die kommende Nacht und der nächste Tag sollen echt übel werden. #Gewitter und sturmartige Böen. Da haben wir in #Kroatien schon fiese Sachen gesehen. Habe keine Lust, dass mir das leichte #Tarp um die Ohren fliegt.

  6. Nurseries aren't a luxury - there an essential part of a decent society. It's good that @Aberdeenshire have put their planned cuts on hold - but why are we in this situation in the first place? New blog from our #TARP development officer Annie McCormack.

    Thanks!

    His "Claim #3" seems to agree with me... "A diamond tarp is a good compromise between good coverage and easy set-up verses an asym tarp."

    I will probably add "half-way" tie-outs (orange lines in graphic) to the diamond tarp I've used for years. I've been in situations (cliffs) where I've strung a line between two-trees, and folded the point of the tarp around that line and back under the hammock. (blue line in graphic) This also works when up against a rock wall or similar.

    I've actually had a lot of experience pitching on "cliff edges" (usually no more than 20-30ft drop). For one I just tied to a full 1L water bottle (could use a bag of rocks, etc.) and let it hang over the edge. (top of graphic)

    Of course if you are sleeping under the stars and have a spreader pole you don't need ANY extra lines (other than two trees and the hammock straps). 🙂

  13. @nickrauchen @parslii Hex tarps can be a bit more complex to construct than a simple cut. Many are cut with catenary curve to help tension the fabric better.

  14. It's unjust that so many people in rural Scotland find it hard to get the health care they need. The #Aberdeenshire #TARP network discuss the issue, start talking about how best to influence local policy, and share info and updates.

    To each his/her own on tarp shape I'm sure. 🙂

    If you think about it tho... a hex tarp is just a diamond (square) shape with two of the points chopped off (dotted lines in image). I've done this with a cross-rope to double back the one point (because there is an obstruction or empty space beyond).

    The diamond becomes a hex if you use the four orange pull-outs shown here. Some square (diamond) tarps have such pull-outs.You can have it both ways!

    Hybrid example: if the wind was coming from the upper right, you could use the corresponding pull-out to "dip" the fly in that quadrant, so only one extra rope needed.

    Thanks for the feedback!

  19. „Junge Alternative“ in Schleswig-Holstein

    Der Landesverband der „Jungen Alternative“ (JA) Schleswig-Holstein gründete sich am 29. August 2014. In Schleswig-Holstein gibt es derzeit drei Regionalverbände. Die Mitglieder der Verbände treffen sich regelmäßig zu gemeinsamen Aktivitäten. Beispiele sind hier die Teilnahme am „Volkstrauertag“, Gemeinschaftsabende, Wanderungen und Kampfsporttrainings. Dass bei der „Jungen Alternative“ nicht nur für den Straßenkampf trainiert wird, sondern es aus den Reihen der AfD zu schwersten Gewalttaten kommt, bei denen auch mit dem Tod des politischen Gegners gerechnet werden muss, zeigte sich besonders am 17.10.2020, als Melvin Schwede, zum Tatzeitpunkt AfD-Mitglied, in Henstedt-Ulzburg mit einem Auto Jagd auf Antifaschist*innen machte und vier von ihnen verletzte. Aber auch Angriffe aus Kundgebungen, wie beispielsweise bei Infoständen gegen Antifaschist*innen sind keine Seltenheit. Im folgenden werden die Regionalverbände und ihre Mitglieder vorgestellt. Es werden Neuzugänge benannt sowie Aktivitäten bereits bekannter Mitglieder im IB-Tarnorganisation „Nordfeuer“ aufgedeckt.

  20. No, I’m not that strong, the mallet was that old. Yes, it rained. At times, a downpour. But my tent stayed dry except for the water I tracked in.

  23. Second weekend of #sabbatical. Second campground. Wanted to be sure I arrived before the (inevitable) rain. Was running around with no flashlight, after nine!
