Yep it's all about being organised, like others we run a check list, which is currently at 4 pages of A4 large text of course.

Also we have 6 of the 42lt "Really Usefull Box's" sadly labelled 1 to 6.

We use the Box's to store all the smaller items, and in actual fact only ever take 4 of the 6 Box's with us.

If there is somthing in a 42lt "Really Useful Box" then it's camping related.

Another reason for choosing that particular Box is that two side by side fit perfectly into our 110cm wide Trailer, with 2 on top.

The "Really Useful Box's" are far stronger than the cheap plastic box's you find in Wilkinsons etc, and the 42lt size also make for adhoc seating and low tables when empty to mention just a few alternative uses.

Cheapest place for "Really Usefull Box's" is Makro followed by Staples, if not buying online.

Bought my last two from one of the Staples closing down stores back in January, £10 each bargain, Makro are around £12 inc VAT.

Thanks so much everyone for your replies,after caravanning I have some idea of what to expect from the campsites here in Ireland.

My little Astra will hopefully morph into a tardis....kept expecting to see sofa and armchairs on the lists lol (thats definitely when camping turns into glamping!!)

Thanks a million everyone, you've been really helpful.
