Yikes how long does it take you to unpack!


Well, the first time took us about 6 hours!!!!

The second took 3 - including putting the tent up!

I can really understand your daughter is dancing in the background - everybody would dance when having such a great holiday!

Wowzers - you look more organised on your first trip than the level we have reached after a few years !

Great when all the planning and anticipation pay off  -bliss.

Lovely photos, I'm liking your tablecloth and the tent looks lovely and comfy.  Your girls all look very happy and chilled out, congratulations on that one, I have a teen  and if he's happy we're all happy.

For a first trip, you are well organised, the sofa and the hanging rails in the bedroom are great ideas.

Had to give up the camping due to the rubbish Weather and Wind, so got myself a campervan!

I think you may have the tent and canopy confused?

Also, I now want two of those Wilko chairs.


And a hanging rail.


And another camp kitchen.


To think I thought I was sorted....
