We take those rubber door wedges with us, and have tried to buy tables/cupboards with adjustable feet :)

I usually use a bottle of Bacardi to level my bed. Vodka works well too I hear.
Sometimes, just one bottle isn't enough though...
Lemonade, Coke, Vodka, Baileys (Aldi version!) and Bacardi...

= one perfectly level food cupboard, which doubles as tea mashing table, with leccy kettle atop. Accuracy is paramount, for safety reasons, you understand!
Of course, the order of the bottles can be rearranged to suit the ground conditions... Oh, and the level of liquid in each needs to be adjusted too, as the tent settles!!

You've got that right mucker. Although my tent seems to need to liquids completely replacing mid week as it takes a good few days to settle properly.
