Bridge House campsite at Lechlade on Thames, Zeelees. Lovely little site one field away from the river and 10 minutes walk from the town.

it rained  in the midlands for the last 2 nights - first time in weeks and weeks! Sad that I am, I slept with all the windows open and tried to imagine I was in a tent....I love listening to the rain at night - takes me back to camping holidays as a child.

Apparently you're supposed to retreat to the car during an electrical storm, as the car acts as a faraday cage to protect you. However, we've experienced two storms while camping, and both times we stayed in the tent, I brewed coffee, opened the curtains & we both sat and enjoyed the free show.
