I wouldn’t normally use this blog for shameless promotion and product placement, ..except when it is something i fully endorse and use myself, ..so now i am going to do it, ..twice, ..why not.
The first little gem i have discovered is possibly the best sleeping bag ever, ..it is called the SELK Bag ….and without trying to explain it, ..it looks like this..
Yes it is a fully functional human sleeping bag, ..so you can sleep as you want, ..not all cooped up and constrained, …and of course a little further discussion on this will turn up some other interesting merits, ..2 people in 1 :) …going to the toilet without leaving your bag (unzipping it of course).
They do 3 version , ..personally No.3 made of duck feather had my name on it, ..but i will leave your reckless spending habits to you.
I got mine from www.selkbag.de because they were fast, helpful and had the one i wanted when i wanted, ..so they have my seal of approval.
Secondly, ..MOSQUITOES, .. i hate them, ..and they love me, …what can i say, ..i used to say it was because i obviously tasted pretty good, ..now i know better, …it is my kairomones!!
What are kairomones? Just as humans are attracted to each other’s pheromones, insects are attracted to their hosts by kairomones - the kairomone mosquitoes are particularly attracted to is carbon dioxide. Others include lactic and carboxylic acids. All these kairomones are eliminated by the body in proportion to the rate of metabolism. Therefore the more active you are, the more attractive [a meal you are]! Kairomones can be detected by the female mosquito up to one kilometer away!

But we all know we hate the little buggers and there is nothing we can do about them, …not anymore!!
Enter Incognito, a product i felt so strongly about that i contacted the company who make it and am now involved in working with them to improve the accessibility standards of there site and a number of other tasks.
Do i stand by how good it is, ..i am not going to stop using it just to find out, …YES, …IT WORKS !!
