Sun & Midge Protection: some products and a little video
Sunday Afternoon Ultra Adventure Hat & Vallon Daytripper sunglasses
Summer's not over. August may have started cool and windy here in the Highlands but hot weather is forecast. There's a heat warning for much of England with temperatures forecast to climb above 30C. Here in the Cairngorms it's meant to be the lower 20s Celsius, which is quite hot enough for me.

This year I've been trying out various items designed for sun and insect protection and comparing them with my favourites. Today I gathered them together and made a little YouTube video.
The photos with this piece show some of the items I discuss in the video. They were all taken this year except for the Midge Specs one which is from last year.

Last autumn, I heard about sun hoodies and was tempted but, typically, prevaricated. The weather for my backpacking journeys stayed superb so I became a little bit superstitious about those hoodies. Recently, after a very dry start to the year, a friend bought a sun hoody and look what has happened to the weather!
