Glad you all enjoyed yourselves, shame bout the weather!
You'll have to go do Snowdon again when it warms up a bit?
Your certainly braver than me, slightest bit of rain or mud and I go in to camping meltdown 😂
Not ideal weather, no, but I do genuinely find myself getting less stressed about it, the more I go camping.
With the forecast as it was, the amount of rain we had, and all that mud, I'm not too proud to admit I wouldn't have even set up 4 years ago! Under these exact conditions, I reckon I would have upgraded to one of those pods, and left the tent in the car upon arrival!

Hi Burnzie, and thanks.
With respect though, I think "a nice idea" is a bit of an understatement when it comes to camping in the UK.
I'd say when it comes to camping tips, it was right up there with "Don't forget to take your tent"!
Luckily, it was one of the first tips I read on here, and we now take a bag full of old towels (about 6, maybe 8?) every trip, regardless of the weather forecast. You just never know when they might come in handy!  
Actually, there's another tip now...
Due to the "No detergents on tent's" rule, we only put these towels through a hot rinse. We read about possible detergent residue in the towels, then wiping towels all over a wet tent, and put two and two together!
That may be a little too paranoid, but it works for us, and we don't care what the towels look like, as long as they feel clean and dry when we take them!
