Replaced our ageing folding table with the one on sale in ALDI at £19.99. Nice dark grey top and comes in a handy zipped carry bag. Also bought one of the Changing/Dry robes. £39.99 for an adult size. Windproof and with a nice warm fluffy lining. Very generous in size so probaly need one size smaller that you would normally buy clothes in. The Children's equivalent (which will also fit petite adults) is £29.99 https://www.aldi.co.uk/adults%27-crane-changing-robe/p/832182784011200

We have the actual/original DryRobe version.
For those unaware, they are changing robes.
Designed specifically for standing on the beach/river bank or similar, whipping off all your wet gear, drying yourself (either with a towel and/or the inner lining of the robe itself), and effectively getting re-dressed inside them. There's even a "secret" yet massive inside zipped pocket/compartment (In the DryRobe version) to carry your clean/dry replacement clothes and keep them literally within reach).
Hence the over-sized effect, including (importantly!) the ability to remove your arms from the sleeves to carry out the above change of clothes whilst "keeping one's dignity" in public!
Many Pros in many forms of watersports are big fans. 
(And many "celebrities" have been keen to join the hype!)
They are, of course, equally suitable for idly sitting outside a tent on an otherwise chilly evening (Our main purpose for buying!)
And similarly, they could come in handy for that walk to and from the campsite shower block, which was how/where we first saw them in use back in Sept 2020, before going straight to Google, and pressing the Buy Button! 
Don't downsize if you have any plans to use them for their intended purpose as a changing robe. Wet gear can be a bugger to wriggle out of!
