That would be so helpful!! I'm awaiting my tent in the post - I'm so excited lol! I'm currently adding items to my list at the risk of needing a mortgage to buy!

I do have a list, written for my first trip and refined since. It's in a notebook I use as a camping diary, and I transfer the list every time I start a new book. If you write the list on post it notes they transfer most easily.

I also have a 'definitive' shopping list we use whilst away which lives in my purse.

Got list of all my gear - and where it's stored in my flat (over all over the place) written in my camping and holidays journal. Also have separate lists for basic and ehu camping. At the end of camp I write what has worked well, what I used most or least so I can adapt list.

Hi Gloucester, I would please.  I have a list but I keep losing it and then I know I will end up forgetting something off it.

(I've just edited this post thanks to Mucker, I would like a copy but I dont know how we can get in touch without putting it up there)
