to tents, I seem to buy a new one every year and the more pictures I see, the more I want to buy another. Camping is supposed to be saving me money but a tent every year sort of defeats the object. I don't get why I have to keep visiting camping shops and going in and out of tents, when I already have two that suit me really well!
I love seeing inside everyones tents because I'm a nosey beggar.Gives me some great ideas. Hadn't realised before I joined here there was such a thing as tent envy! Really enjoy looking at the tents with carpet and blow up sofas all the mod cons.

I do just the same thing, your not alone! I think it shows your still very interested (Hooked) on camping and whats wrong with that?
We're all the same on here. I know I am and everyone else seems to be just like me so it must be a severe, uncontrollable addiction. I'm just off now to 'Go Outdoors at
We're now content with the 2.5 we have (the .5 is co-owned), but the in-laws have unwisely mentioned in passing that they'd like a better tent, so I am now happily 'window' shopping on their behalf!
It was really lovely, would definately go again, only thing that put me off was the price, a good £5 per night over what I like to pay, was worth it though, it was soooo clean!
