Unless trips are an SRT frenzy from start to finish much prefer to keep kit in a bag until its needed rather than wander about trussed up all day, particularly in pokey places. The pockets thing is a great idea though - could improve my underground diet from one Mars Bar to five! -- Rich IP: 80.254.146.20
