That is a real shame but better to get healthy than stay out in the cold and snow and make yourself worse.

Stay in the warm this time, stewey. You have warm kit and would no doubt be comfortable enough, but that bitterly cold, damp air will be going into your lungs, and you don't want that.

If you're anything like my OH you'll know when you feel better - you'll reach for a pint!

Hope you're fine soon and you can get back under canvas.

hi stewey,
good thoughts mate, in going camping you may pickup another 'bug' on top of that one.. wait till you've had a pint or two ... it will still be cold then

I sure do like the UK summers :) :)

You could always just turn the heating off and try out your new bag.

I know what you mean mate. I have had three chest infections in the last three months each requiring time off work. The doctor now things I have winter asthma too. I feel mostly OK indoors but as soon as I am out in the cold I start wheezing and coughing.

Armchair camper with more tents than I will probably ever get the use out of.
