infact it hold the dam bag in place so you can turn inside the bag.

We've tried roll mats, gave me backache, son didn't like it, airbeds - great if they stay inflated - mine didn't, son's did but like someone else said, a pain to inflate at the end a long day travelling, then having to get up in the night to re-inflate.  Thermarest, great until No. 1 son pinched it to go to Glastonbury 2 years ago & left it there, Aluminium-frame camp-bed from Argos - brilliant, so comfy, especially with the foam cover from the sun lounger on it.  Trial and error, I'm afraid to find what suits you best.

I slept on a foam mat for the first couple of years of camping ....no problems, fine for kids and adults alike ..... We've now got Thermarest self inflating matresses - they are so comfy and warm. ....... Each bed type has advantages and disdvantages, and we're all different.

I slept on a double blow itself up airbed, it was so cool it plugs into the mains and do it its self, and if you wake up and want more air in just press a button near youur hear and away you go.  When deflating in sucks the air out from the same place.

In the camping shops they are about £60 but you can pick one up from COSCO for £25.00 Bargin.
