No don't. Keep it going!
Here's what I take:
a well-furnished tent
3 months' rations
collapsible canoe
jointed flagstaff and Union Jack
hand pump and sterilising plant
astrolabe
6 suits of tropical linen
sou'wester
camp operating table and set of surgical instruments
portable humidor
Christmas hamper with Santa costume and mistletoe stand
cane for whacking snakes
coil of rope
sheet of tin
several cleft sticks, for sending despatches
oh, alright then it was William Boot in 'Scoop', not me.
What I take varies according to circumstance but could include any of
the following:
mobile phone
notebook & pen
guidebook & maps
phrase book
carabiners
silk sleeping bag liner
Swiss Army knife
overnight toiletries, including these as well as the more obvious
stuff:
metal mirror
wet wipes
anti-histamine
insect repellent
torch
whistle
titanium spoon & fork
shortwave radio
compass
water filter
water bottle/s
mosquito net
coffee sweets
Despite the foregoing, I do actually travel quite light usually.
