it was so hot on both Friday and Saturday nights that I had to take my socks off and unzip my bag. So much for taking the quishions they were definitely not needed. Also not needed was the rain that started at 7.45 this morning meaning we brought wet tents home. Thankfully an afternoon in the garden and they are dry and packed away again

We have just come home from a weekend away (same tent as you !!!!) and I was boiling hot on Saturday night. I also took off my fleecy socks, warm pj trousers and unzipped the bag. Hubby took off his warm hat !

We packed away a very wet tent which is now drying in the garage. The joys of the English weather

Same here, I had to go sit out side for a while because my feet were soooo hot! lol. I had to unzip the kids and just put a light blanket on them. I had packed lots of warm blankets and fleecy PJs.. brilliant weekend. Shame about the downpour but at least I now know that the tent is still water proof

and here I was thinking it was me having hot flushes early!! Being hot in the tent at bed time is not something I'm used to when camping in the UK. It was lovely listening to the rain in bed until I realised that I'd have to take a wet tent home!
