Tell me something Mile...if you woke up one morning...
Oh wait...we did that one already didn't we.
1. Got eaten alive by gnats camping next to a river in Scotland - Never set camp next to a river in Scotland.
2. Camping in my mates back garden as a kid his mum said to us: 'Now if you need to go in the night I don't mind you wetting the grass but I don't want to trip up over anything in the morning.
3. Carry on Camping is without doubt the best movie to ever grace the face of the earth.
4. Some older kids jumped out tent one night and proceeded to beat the crap out of us while we were still in the wreck of the tent...never did see them or find out who it was.
...hardly groundbreaking news :lol:
He is in touch with his feminine side isn't he.
what's that?
it's your only friend.
Fictional location of Carry on Camping.
If you can find the nudist site that Sid and Bernie were actually looking for, you're laughing :)
ha ha nice one, kinda fitting with your new avatar. :)
Borrow one, its cheaper, loads of people have tried camping once and never gone again, ask around. Or the first time buy a cheap one, Try a large shop like decathlon they have loads of stuff.
Top Tip 1 :- practice Erecting your tent in the garden first then you won't look an arse at the camp site.
Top tip 2 :- If your GF is fussy about condition of Lav's/Showers check these out before you've paid the man and set-up.
Very poor i know
It's ok I too had a giggle at it.
Yeah..and those toilets made by 'crapper'

we've gone out and bought one this weekend. it cost 50 quid, and we got it from Blacks so it was a good deal.
i had a go erecting it, but i couldn't get it up, my gf was sympathetic, and we are going to try again this weekend. i'll take a pic of it. it's quite big.
we've decided to go wilderness camping in the cairngorns (spelling) so no need for shower etc. we tried to buy a map, but failed, so we think we'll just keep driving north till the road ends.
2 nights accomodation and take your car over with you too... ?66 all in.
Can't be bad :)
Buy 6KG of Samson whilst your over there to flog off when you get home, and I'll be ?60 up on the deal !
