I love getting away from it all. Packing the car, planning the trip, entertaining the kids the old fashioned way. No computers,consoles etc.

I hate coming home, because i have neighbours who make our lives a misery.

I like everything about camping even the rain on the tent in the night. As our kids are all grown up now I don't mind a bit of wet camping because it means I can just laze around reading etc.

Oh yes there is one thing I hate, no where to put my glasses when I am having a shower. I am so short sighted that I have to wear them to the shower or I wouldn't find my way back.

Love: Opening the first beer after finishing setting up and looking forward to the trip ahead

Hate: Finding toilet facilities in a state, why dont others leave the loo as they would wish to find it?

Love camping and laying in the tent listening to the dawn chorus then dropping back off to sleep all cosy.

Hate; noisy campers after midnight, parents who don't keep their kids under control,not camping out of season coz my OH is a wuss.

I like pina colada and getting caught in the rain.

I'm not into health food, I'm into champagne.

Love the getting away from it, sleeping under fabric, having the great outdoors on your doorstep.

Dislike folks who don't show consideration for others and think the site is there to be used (and abused) by them alone. Oh..... and warm beer.

I like cooking with only very basic facilities! I have 2 burners and one grill and love the challenge of creating meals like the ones I do a home on my 8 burner double oven range - its a challenge (thank fek for batchelors savoury rice.... saved my skin many a time after a cooking disaster!).

What I hate is when happened yesterday. Inconsiderate neighbours with a vicious dog on a lead too long + one child playing happily with a ball in a family field = one bitten scared girl (and one mad as hell me).

I love camping, sitting outside with a few glasses of wine/beer, bbqing frequently. Bacon and Egg smells in the morning outside in glorious sunshine (when we do have it), just relaxing basically.

Dont like the packing up, or the packing down so much, dont like it too wet and everything turns muddy.

But on the whole i love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Likes: Quality time together as a family, enjoying playing games with the kids.  Having bbq's, and most of all sitting under the stars at night chilling with a few beers when the kids have gone to bed (ah peace at last lol).

Dislikes: Packing up in the rain. Can't think of anything else!

I LOVE it!

I love cooking breakfast outside in the mornings, I love having no TV, I love the early morning dew.... I could go on forever

I DON'T like, inconsiderate neighbours, yappy dogs barking everytime someone opens a tent door at night and I HATE kids on bikes with those plastic stabalisers that make loads of noise riding past my tent at 7am and still going at 9pm!!
