Great to hear so many people are going off on their own!..good on you all!
I camped alone before I had my son and thoroughly enjoyed every second of it. As has been said before it is very liberating and also very relaxing as you don't have to consider anyone else at all.
Agree with Mispet in that the best bit is you can do what you like, when you like, for as long, or as little as you like!
I don't camp solo now as I have my son in tow but people invariably ask me 'oh are you on your own' despite my son being next to me....I always reply that no I'm not alone as I have my son with me. I don't consider camping with my son to be the same as camping alone as I have someone else to consider although I suppose I can still pretty much do as I please as I'm still the boss.....just!
Great thread...has made me want to go off alone again!
Btw, SmallB, I would be really interested to hear how you get on with your jaunt to the Isle of Arran....I have a thing about islands and am looking to go out that way next year. Good luck with your trip.
