Good pics, good to see all the stuff. For years I cooked on the same stove and table, I managed but it wasn't easy. You get used to it, I used a kitchen stand last holiday and it was okay, the table became the a work top.

Enjoy, good to see I am not the only untidy one.

tiacat, you don't need that size bottle is space is at a premium. We use a 907 campingaz bottle. Alternatively a couple of suitcase stoves would work as well.

at BCML, ours does only have two guys on the flap and yes we did have issues with the wind between the porch and tent we found the only way to sort this out was to stretch the support straps/guys apart and tighten them but this put pressure on the tent I was uncomfortable with so I ended up keeping it loose and just double rock pegging it for security.

at british bronco, it was Callow Top holiday park in Ashbourne, absolutely brilliant place if you don't mind a busy environment. Working on a review shortly.

at DandB the Tissington trail is beautiful, lovely to walk on and even better to cycle on, I didn't get any more pictures but the missus might have, I will ask her when she wakes up. (She's taking a nap as been awake since 4)

Working on some pics and reviews etc now.
