How about one of these?

Or one of these?

I’ve not tried either but have looked into both myself.
 
       I have a sit mat which doubles up as a  flask insulator as well as being more flexible for sitting on rocky outcrops or uneven ground.

thanks for your reply but the rucksack looks to be a single strap and unlikely to be comfortable walking any distance looked at these and could not find one with double straps sadly

It has two straps according to the pic.  I know the one I looked at in The Range had two straps.  Though I agree, it may not be comfortable to carry longer distance though.

I have the small three legged seat, I use it when I need to fiddle with my bike gears, or when I'm in my estate care and am preparing food in the boot area. Useful to be able to sit at the right height rather than me getting a back ache. No good for leaning backwards though! Good for the price.

Great idea - where did you find it?

Sorry, I have no idea, my son bought it for a few years ago for my birthday.

I have one! Just never thought of using it as insulation. My flask keeps pretty hot but will be using this idea for a cold drink in the coming Hot (I Hope) Summer.
