This was us at the weekend - all tents in the picture were our 'group'.

Look at the lovely sunshine we had !  Had a great time, hopefully not the last before the tent is fully put away and my season is over.....

Oi Mucker, who are you calling riff raff!!! 17

Yes, we had a great time - can't resist posting a pic on my little Elzas (Elsie) on her first proper camping trip with me - and the humongous Cabanon windbreak saw it's first campsite 17

Hi Mucker ,
Yes that is me on the far left, no riff raf there at all !!!! Just nice large pitches.
Foster mum - your picture , the bunting makes your tent look like she is either sleeping on blinking, shadowed onto the canvas.

Whoops!!

Don't think it's even worth attempting to worm my way out of this one, is it?


Nice tent, Fostermum. Although I suspect it's a little "too exclusive" for me, as I really am riff-raff!!
That windbreak is immense! I'd be tempted to sell my tent for that, and just snuggle up behind it!!!

Lovely tents, great campsite, terrific piccies!

Does the heart good for this camper who, for reasons beyond her control, has not spent a single night under canvas this year... YET! Still the rest of October and two more months to go...

Thanks for sharing your photos.

Mucker - too right - you certainly can't wriggle out of that one 17 17

FoO - I know how you feel - this was my first camp since February which is why I enjoyed it so much - well, we did have a litttle get together at Easter in my garden - and I've spent more than a few nights on my own garden camping 17

Hope you get away somewhere soon.

garydebzjessica We were at Henlow bridge lakes on the Beds/Herts border... Really lovely site, I have left a review but it's not been published yet

Would definitely recommend and can't wait to see all the work they are doing ready for next year for group camping......

You were just teasing me Fostermum with Elsie weren't you (Mantrachant - we are both on the same hunt.)

And just how do you pitch so neatly? I want you to put up Esther for me as I never get the back edges smooth which drives me mad. It looks very snug and I like her eyelashes too!

It looks like you all had a lovely weekend: as it's not far from me I must check it out
