Stagtime Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 Got my tent ready to go next month when it warms up a bit. Can't handle the cold 23deg days at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Van der MoodHoover Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 gathers up into one confined space all the little things that really really irritate you about family/friends. And you get to poo in a bucket or stand in line at the communal bog block at 7.30am with all the other newspaper wielding 40-somethings ? Its a valuable social service.

Whilst one continues to use a table cloth, one will always maintain one's dignity. Would one not agree? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, you use flip-flops for work, and fur lined boots for camping? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rev Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 Camping is fantastic fun. Nothing beats getting back to nature, sleeping under the stars and eating beans cooked in a WWII stacking saucepan from a plastic plate with plastic cutlery, while sipping a lukewarm tinny and wondering quite when the donkeys making love in the next door field will finally be sated. While wearing every item you've bought with you to keep warm as you sleep on a slowly deflating airbed with condensation dripping of the canvas walls. Apart from a hotel room, cottage, caravan, lodge, chalet, builders skip or police cell, obviously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolfie Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 I really enjoy camping & find it very relaxing. We have to have electric hook up though. Otherwise the gin gets warm. Nothing better than sat outside the tent on a fabulous evening (as we did last weekend), playing cards and drinking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boycie Posted July 17, 2020 Author Share Posted July 17, 2020 Actually I think if you do go camping the local council will gather you up and put you in a hotel until next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sage Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 It's ok on 1 of 2 conditions a) You absolutely can't afford anything else or b) It's the only place to sleep within walking distance of a great pub (and then 1 or 2 nights only) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
