so if i put a camping mat then air bed then another camping mat and a blanket then my sleeping bag i should be fine apart from sleeping in the roof

it isnt that much of a problem at all just air off if you notice any , in the morning the inside of the tent will be dampish in places anyway.

Incidentally I was in quick save this morning and they have those metal foil foam plastic camping mat things in a roll were £3.99 down to £1.99. I nearly bought some but opened a pack up a bit and thought it would just make the airbed slip if it was under so changed my mind.

they are the mats we bought we put them on top of our airbed and they are great

do you not find the bag slipping on them ?

I very nearly did get them but have to curb my inclination to buy ever more camping stuff as it all takes up room in the car.

We've had the problem but only with the kids (5 & 3 years old), I thought it was due to the fact that the sleeping bags kept them too warm (3 season bags) and they couldn't regulate their temperature through the night and got a bit sweaty. Airing the kids bags and airbeds is the first thing I do every morning and we don't leave for the day until everything is dried through in the sun, hense this year I believe our luck with weather is due to run out and we've invested in a heater so even if we get rain I can still dry everything. However, reading the above there maybe easier ways to deal with it. Do the people who use roll mats on top of there air beds have nice dry sleeping bags in the morning or is it just the airbed that remains dry?
