Yes, I have given up smoking to pay for my new addiction!

There are so many things that I want to add to my ever growing kit so I'm saving all my monies that I shall no longer spend on the ciggies in my camping pot lol!

First things I want to save for are the Monty awning, carpet and kitchen unit, just not sure in which order yet! 

I wish I'd have given up a long time ago but who'd have thought my love for camping would be the reason to actually do it!!!

Good on you! And good luck with keeping it up!
I desperately want to get to France next year for a month or so (I teach so long summer) Maybe you've given me some inspiration - £300 a month would do it!!

Good luck with kicking the addiction, you never know with what you save it could be a polycotton monty next year.

Thanks for the support peeps!  I've been working things out and am going to save for the carpet first I think, really hoping I will be able to get the awning at a reduced price if I keep my eye out :0)

Congratulations!

You won't regret it!  Not only will you have your nice, new carpet next time you camp, but you'll also be able to smell the countryside. (Not that that's an advantage if it's muck-spreading season!  

Enjoy your newly-discovered freedom from the dreaded smoke!
