display, well it was packed just got in the car park, but it was worth a vist, looked at all the tents, adn got some brill advice from the man there, and guess what matt is now agreeing to come with me, we really liked the mallard 6, just what we need for the weekends away, so hopefully will look at all t he other gear we will need to get.

my list includes

camping stove

a bucket with a lid for the kids at night to do a wee in

torch

hanging lamps

sleeping bags for us, kids already have them

folding picinic table

camping chairs for us all

anything else i may need??

we are only planning for short weekends away this season. 

citronella candles to keep the bugs away.

kettle,washing up bowl!

can opener with corkscrew

air bed       air pump to fit car lighter

chairs

washing up bowl  fairy liquid  sponge

melamine crockery wilkinsons have a set for 3.99          a good knife

lighter for cooking

we found that electric hookup is needed

if you get a camp cooker you only need two rings and tthat you don't tend to use the grill they are slow so we took electric kettle and toaster you can get cheap ones for 5 pound you can use your from home and the saving will go towards hookup

if you feel the cold you can get halogen heater as well   but you can not get one in summer we looked everywhere last year and had to wait till winter they are still around now and some are on offer (becouse summer coming).

hope this helps
