There is nothing like an old friend to give you a kick or a hug when you need one (Nx/Ex)
Old friends are always there but sometimes the friendship needs dusting off ...and that was exactly what I just did when I scrubbed up my old Tatonka travel pack. This pack is the best and not buying another one has facilitated lots of other lovely pre-trip spending!
This old friend's finer points include:
- several pieces of red security tape from Indonesia 1999 which desipte "the scrubbing" is still secure
- a tiny Union Jack cloth badge that Mum sewed on in 1998 - unfortunately though its lost its dirty old charm as part of "the scrubbing"
- An adjustable harness which given my new straighter back I might finally be able to utilise!
- Bomber Zips - To my exdpedition leading little brother - I took your advice and chose the pack with the best zips!!
- Its a rectangle not an oval - an storage essential for the female backpacker expecting to tackle numerous markets
- A we have pretty extensive backpacking history in SE Asia, China and Africa ...we even went to Timbuktou together!
...so am I really going alone?
