I've got withdrawal symptoms - still, only 2 weeks to go until our first camping trip of the year.

Isn't this site some kind of therapy for all us addicts??

When you can't be camping, you might as well be thinking and writing about it?

My OH likes camping, but refuses to discuss it when we're at home, so I would cold turkey without this site!!

To get away from the rat race, relaxing with a glass of wine and listening to the wildlife.

Doing what you want when you want, opening your 'front door' the friendly good morning of your neighbour who has already prepared breakfast Mmmmmmm the smell of a barbie and seeing the world in all its beauty, you don't get that in hotels. Is the any other way of having a reasonably priced and good holiday?

Can't wait. OH wants to get to all the camping shops, and she is a lady that hasn't wanted to go camping for 20 years!

We brought our tent last easter and ended up only spending two weekends at home the whole summer. We are going away this weekend for the first time this year and i can't wait. The freash air, the fun the children have and getting away from the hussle of everyday life is what appeals to us. The wine and cheese is also a great bonus. It has become a tradition between us and our friends who can take the most unusal cheese and biscuits.

Soon as I get on site I switch off, reeeeeeeeeeeelax, slooooooooooow down. Just get away from lifes hustle and bustle.Word of warning if you have just started camping you end up needing regular doses of it, and you will end up with a shed full of camping gear, well thats what happended to us.

Every time you go away it's different. New views, different neighbours, new paths to explore, there's nothing like it in the world.
