Thanks mrsgrumpy. The coolbox is handy because it plugs into the car for the trip to site and then plugs into our EHU when we arrive, keeps the sausages and bacon cold, don't realy drink so can't be doing with a fridge.

A-ha ... but if it plugs in ... thats a 'fridge' to me, I haven't seen them in coolbox size, we've got a slightly larger version. 

Does your tent always stay that clean and tidy?

We try and keep the tent tidy but i must admit the photos got taken after we set up.

The coolerbox was from Aldi it has 2 leads attached 1 for the car and 1 for a standard 3 pin plug. it has come in very handy for days out. Last year we went away for the weekend and packed a picnic for two days, we stopped in a hotel over night and was able to keep it cool for the full two days and one night.

I use a side extension for cooking in... Granted not as safe as a seperate utility tent, but the DD is banned whilst we're cooking, and if worse should happen, the BL has two other doors that can be used as an exit for those in the main tent...

Here is our cooking setup in a Suncamp Daytent.

Notice the wooden block under the Gas powered fridge. We found that if the fridge was not level it just failed to work.

We have the same cooker as asap (this will be first time using it - given to us by my parents friend across road), and a stand with a guard round it that it goes on which I got from work (argos).  I will actually take some pics this year and post them when I get back!

HI.... WE HAVE ALWAYS COOKED  IN THE VANGO TENT EXTENTION BUT HAVE NOW CHOOSEN THE VANGO TIGRIS 800 SIMPLY TO ELIMINATE THE NEED FOR AN EXTENTION HAS THERE IS LOADS OF SPACE FOR LIVING IN AND ROOM FOR COOKING GEAR  IF YOU JUST USE THE BACK BEDROOM
