What is the most ridiculous item of 'I'll take it just in case' when you go camping?

I've taken river shoes when we were not even going near a river!

If we were flying off to a hotel I wouldn't be able to take any of this stuff so why do I feel the need to fill every gap in the car with camping stuff?

I took a bikini to Norfolk last weekend. Now that was a bit hopeful don't you think ?!

To think I neally just joined 'I'll take it just in case' club. and would have if I hadn't read this thread.

I was about to pack a sun dress as we are away to Northumberland on Saturday!

So do I join the club or not?

I took 7 pairs of shoes on my first weekend camping trip  well you never know

I guess that you are a female?!?!?!

I liked the second of the two photos in your gallery.  There is one taken of me on our last camp in a similarly exhausted "desparately-seekeg-rest" pose.

lol - hmmm what makes you think that

re the photo - I was merrily setting up camp and wondered where my 'helpers' had gone, then found my daughter and dog fast asleep in the bedroom pod  we had only been at the campsite for about an hour

ps back to the thread - my other just incase items include a gazillion batteries for torches etc but most of my torches and lamps are wind up and we normally go EHU anyway
