Hi Marnie An even better light weight and universal solution would be one of those "survival" reflecting aluminum foils which keep you warm in case as well. Of course it's still uncomfortably hard if your on the ground :-) Greetings Markus

If you ask your local Brownie troop, I'm sure you will find somebody who will show you how to weave strips of newspaper into a "sit-upon". They are usually made such that a tall kitchen garbage bas is used for the waterproof covering over the newspaper padding, but I'm sure you could work out how to make one a little larger. The weaving is important; the final product offers more padding than just covering newspapers with waterproof plastic. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
