One of the biggest problems with camping is trying to find a way to keep your head comfortable, especially if you happen to be backpacking and have limited room.
However Andrew Gilchrist might have found the perfect answer in what he calls the “Glasgow Pillow”. To the rest of us this is essentially the inner foil or plastic part from a wine case (where your wine comes in a box with a tap).
Ideally this should be emptied which should make you extremely popular around the campsite, and then when filled with air it provides a very comfortable and extremely flat packed pillow for use over and over again.
See Andrew’s article for a few more humorous and potentially practical camping options (and a picture of said Glasgow Pillow in action).
