very low profile, enables you to roll out and fight if attacked etc... BUT not to clever if its windy or raining sideways as it is prone to do.
Also its quite a hardship for most people if your not expecting to be bumped in the night etc complete pain in the arse if your lanky too as yoiur feet or head sticks out in the rain...

That's a fair point.

I think I'll be using a basha with a bivi, to keep the concerns of ground water out of my mind. But the idea is to make it quick in and out.

I have a couple of ponchos in my BOB, complete with tent pegs. However, a proper basha would still be a worthy item to learn to use. Mainly, I'm wanting one so that I have something to use incase I'm crap with the ponchos haha. But also, because when bugging out, I'd like something slightly more permenant that a poncho. More hard wearing, that kind of thing.
