OH has convinced me to go camping (I have resisted since Christmas) and we now have a huge tent.

We put it up in the garden today and Wil loves it.

I was a seasoned camper has a child/ teenager but haven't camped for years.

Anyone else camp?

OH suggested we have a BANDA camping holiday, anyone?

ooh i go camping, although havent been since i was 25 weeks pg with oliver...my mum took leo last year...ill be going this year, have all my gear ready id be up for a banda camping trip
i had a dream we had a banda trip the other night(the night of laura passing ) we didnt camp though x

errm i also went to spain by coach at 33 weeks x

youre a whole lot tougher than me then hahaha

I only do Glamping with all the home comforts including duvet. Can't imagine containing a toddler in those circumstances!

I camp quite often at VW shows. I love it! I went camping when I was 31 weeks pg with Ollie and Ollie has already been quite a few times too

This is my idea of horror. I hate public toilets, i need to have a shower and wash my hair every day and need a hairdryer and hair straightners. I would honestly rather stay at home in my nice comfy house than go camping

Kate..I am with you on that..so in saying that..we have a trailer..with a full operational bath/shower with hot water...comfy warm fluffy beds..fully stocked kitchen fridge, stove & with a microwave...and most important of all...a generator for running the television for video games and movies! Trust me..this saves our lives when it suddenly rains buckets! We can go anywhere in the middle of the wilderness and be quiet content! Ohh..also forgot our heated camp chairs! toasted buns! No roughing it here!!!

Could have written that myself, the closest I'll ever get to camping is a caravan

I love camping! Nothing like a bit of fresh air and mud. You've reminded me I need to get my tent back from Dave's best mate

Me and oh love camping but haven't been with boys. Think we will wait till they are older x

the only time i have camped recently has been at t in the park
before evan was born we wud camp for the wkend every year

I haavent done camping since I was about 17! I used to enjoy it with my mates getting pissed but the thought of sober camping defo doesn't appeal to me

I love camping! We have a fairly big tent... Havent been camping since A&S came along though, it will be interesting when we do !!

Andrew would love camping he loves being outdoors!!

Where are you thinking? We have decided when we do go camping with the kids we will be staying close to home incase it doesnt work out!

iv never been!!! OH keeps saying we'l go before we had the kids but never did. I think I'l wait till their older now, dont think I'd sleep worrying lillie got up & wondered off in night.

Id love to camp, mud/ dirt dont bother me x

I have posted some pics of our tent on fb

We are sticking localish this year (Norfolk) but may venture further afield if it all works out and OH doesn't get too upset with the insects.

I vote we organise a BANDA camping trip for next Summer (with hotels nearby for all the delicate folks)

you could just hire a field in the middle of scotland for those who are a million miles from everyone else! if you do it down the road i'll fill up your flasks for free
