If you search on Ebay, you will find the same ones that Nash sell for £11.99 just for one. On Ebay you get five identical ones for about £4 and they are very strong. Strong enough to hang jackets up etc on the inside of the bivvy. Only problem is they are that strong you can make holes in the side of the bivvy if you are not careful removing them. I use 2p and 10p pieces as the backing plate and remove them with a sliding action rather than just trying to part them by pulling them apart which is what makes the holes when they just cockle slightly and you get the sharp edge cutting the fabric.

An idea for the Nash T1 owners out there about the swimming pool in your Peak,
Put a magnetic hook.... Magnet on the inside then hook the hook section over the middle of the tension bar... No more swimming pool

I hang my receiver from one so its next to my head that way I can have the heads turn right down or off and the receiver on low

and only I know when I get a run unlike the masses of tools that wake half the lake when they get some action you just think Noddy

No I had some atts I think they are the most over rated alarms out there IMHO

currently I own and use all of them at some point Delkims , Nash R1s and JRC Radar CX all of them much better I dont see the point in an alarm that does not have the most basic thing a sensitivity control and I dont mean changing blooming wheels

in case you hadnt realised ?

a bivvy hook is miles smaller than any bivvy table and for my needs about 100 times more practical

and did you forget your post 12 below ? ............practice what you preach springs to mind
