"She had the loaded handbag of someone who camps out and seldom goes home, or who imagines life must be full of emergencies.”

Ive gotta just say this describes me to the T, is that a bad thing

 

were gonna try and go away in october

He he that made me laugh coz I'm like that too, the kids call my handbag the tardis. It's really not all that big but I have loads of dinky pockets with everything from spare salt sachets to plasters and nail files in. My OH thinks I should have been a secret agent.LOL.

We went away last october and although yes it was chilly at night the days were lovely and we actualy came back with a tan.

Of course the other bonus of cold night is your other half will deffinately give you a cuddle

We will deffinately be camping all the way through the seasons and hope to see you on our travels

haha me too! My bag is the tardis! hence the signature lol

Latest I ever camped was mid-November but I was only one using a tent. No electrics or heater so relied on thermal ski underwear, ski hat worn all night and a quality sleeping bag. At night I made a flask of hot chocolate and another of coffee so if I awoke cold I had a hot drink.

Biggest problem was keeping myself occupied during long nights - solo camping, plenty reading. Campsite had usual showers though fairly basic apart from a small TV room. Used to take evening meal in there.

Tigerfeet - try Lee Valley campsite - tube and bus handy for central London. London is never really as cold as elsewhere so you should be fine there in October, plus they have great warm shower blocks just like a bathroom in a hotel!
I camped late in October last year and then started again in Feb - nylon tent and no EHU BUT must have a campfire!!
