    Billy it's definitely worth you getting a Dutch or US poncho to use as a tarp when in the bivvy, or for sitting around in the rain

    Great vid, that is a drab part of Cardiff you stayed. Very near the heliport for police and air ambulance etc and near to the entrance to the docks. There are far better roundabouts to camp on around Cardiff. Hope you enjoyed your little stay here.

    Carrying a fixed blade knife could cause you extra problems if you ever get collared on a roundabout. I would look at something like the Spyderco UKPK as an alternative in case you do another night outside a police station.

    I'm old enough to remember an elderly lady living on that roundabout in the late 1980's, early 1990s. She had a shopping trolley with all her worldly possesions in it🛒 I often thought about stopping to see if I could offer any help but I didn't. It's trickier for drivers than it is for pedestrians. Well done for discovering it!

    There's a massive roundabout (clutch of roundabouts just outside of Whitchurch in Cardiff, in sight of Castel Coch too, you'd have been stuck for choice there, the other side of Cardiff from where you ended up mind. Close to where you were though is the Magic Roundabout too, that might've been a bold stealth attempt mind...

    I got rid of my inflatable mattress, too unreliable and a puncture is the last thing you want to be dealing with when you're trying to sleep. I replaced it with two small foam pads. It turns out you only need support and insulation for your main body and the whole rest of a large mat is completely pointless.
