Oct 18th A Belated Two Year Anniversary!

You may, or may not be aware that it’s been pretty busy for me here in the last few months.

The most amazing arrival of a child into the family has been keeping me pretty busy – so busy that I missed the second anniversary for Packs and Beyond.

So, the second year of Packs and Beyond up and running has revealed some interesting numbers.

For the second year of operations, a total of 57430 views has been recorded. That’s averaging 157 views a day.

I have to thank you all for taking the time to poke your nose in – it really is greatly appreciated.

Due to the vagaries of life, I haven’t been able to complete all the equipment reviews I was planning. Some of you neglected to tell me that the arrival of children kind of puts a crimp on spare time, but geez it’s great having a baby in the house to keep one awake! Although it’s all so worthwhile to have a baby grin and giggle at you!

To that end, I’ll be working on the “and Beyond” with some future equipment reviews, concentrating on some load bearing items that have been a God-send for a newly minted parent.

Another great new development for Packs and Beyond though, is that a contributing reviewer will soon be adding his voice to the cacophony. More shall be revealed later down the track, but for now, watch this space.

Once again, thank you all so much for your continued support, and I can only hope we can promise bigger and better for next year!
