Well after bigging up the Costco mat, when I went today they had none left, none in any Scottish store and no more coming in. I'm gutted, should have bought it when I first saw it.

Hi,
Ive finally got 1 vango double 5cm, One from blacks 7cm 1 coffin shape 3cm quecha and borrowed a short themarest. Also the old double air bed. That should cover the six of us in one combination or other. with sleeping bags duvets pillows and fleecy blankets all roun. Im hoping for warm and comfy nites. Just got to fit it all in car...
My Alpkit Dozers have just turned up. Opened and resting now. They look great and seem comfortable - I hope so for the price. Next trip to test them out properly not till July but they have got to be better than the airbed we used in May!
I can't fault the Alpkit service. I ordered them late on Tuesday and they were delivered today.
Very happy with the double vango which was mainly what I slept on. we had a thin duvet under us and a warm feather on top an was so comfy and warm. In fact we could resist nipping into the tent for several goes on it during the day....

Update, spent last weekend on two 5cm mats, one on top of the other, with a fleece on top of them - I've had a back back since. Now I'm not sure if I hurt my back putting up the tent on my own, but I woke 3 or 4 times every night with backache. Shame really because I love the fact there is more space in the pod with SIM's, I can step in and use it as a place to get changed rather than it being wall to wall air bed. My hubby prefers his Airic so not at all sure what to do now. I'm looking at a 3 week camping trip in Europe and I have to know in advance I'll be able to sleep.
Grrr.
