Hi all,
I've decided that I'd like to go camping. This is quite out of character for DH and I, but we've been seduced by the idea of easy trips to French campsites (we live very near the channel ports), electricity on pitches.... oh and bell tents that look pretty.
We've never camped before, but I can really see its appeal, especially now I have an outdoors loving toddler. Am I mad to think that I should get all the stuff so if it goes well (and I don't see why it shouldn't) we have everything for summer holidays for years - if it doesn't we'll just flog it on ebay (DH is quite into ebay selling), and we'll still be quids in because the amount we'd spend on going on a hotel etc would have been the same anyway?
The only thing that worries me is keeping DH warm. I was thinking a small fan heater (can't afford a stove yet) might be a good idea. Also, this might be the push to getting the Remoska I've always secretly wanted too.
Anything else I should be thinking of?
