Poncetastic things when camping

[S1ur]

Would taking courgettes and thyme be a step too far??

[BoysAreLikeDogs]

Oooh

Mighty loud beeping on my ponce-ometer

[wrinklytum]

Sound yummy.Fry in butter on your camping stove.Add black pepper and a few sprigs thyme.Or you could make ratatouille if you add some tinned tom,garlic and stuff.

So I'm thinking we frown on aubergine then?

[gigglewitch]

depends what you are going to do with them

[BoysAreLikeDogs]

aubergine????

[S1ur]

lol Giggle, I am biased have just been camping and spent a few moments judging assessing campers from mn pov.

For instance.

Camping - The one place where wandering around in your jimjams outside in da hood is acceptable.

But apparently wearing heels is not wise.

yy the aubergine was a step too far non? I felt the eyes of judgement upon me, I wanted to yell but look at sensible walking shoes I have don't judge me!

But instead I jutted my chin and played with my thyme

[gigglewitch]

watching campers from MN p.o.v - intriguing, pray tell more!

[S1ur]

surely the pissing in a bush is a requirement as part of regulatory joke akin to bears and woods or popes and catholism...

Do campers wee in bushes?

No, of course not they use prescribed faciities at all hours in all weathers.

[BoysAreLikeDogs]

har har at sensible shoes

yes, what else did you observe?

[gigglewitch]

[BoysAreLikeDogs]

GW why are you you paranoid?

C'mon Slur, dish that dirt

[S1ur]

Camping is funny.

It is lifestyles on display and also amusing priorites yes?

So great combo.

We had 4 different neighbours while we stayed. The quiet ones, the walkers, the families.

We saw only one lot with a portable tv, everyone had lurverly big portable armchairs, a thankfully stylefree styleless zone where only the teens had straightened hair.

[S1ur]

oooh dirt, I'm sure any we saw was tame. I suspect (and hope) that others will dish faaar better.

But in the bathroom I did find... eyelash curlers

[BoysAreLikeDogs]

Roffling at the teens with their straightened hair.

Did I ever tell the story of camping on the Gower years ago ??

When the toilet fell off the wall and I was chased by someone else's massive turd out of the toilet block??

[BoysAreLikeDogs]

eyelash curlers

pmsl #2 at BALD.
and paranoid cos i didn't know all those smug folk sitting in the hooooge folding armchairs next to the tents were spying on us

[QueenyEisGotTheBall]

i dont think courgettes and thyme are poncey
my MIL purposefully went out and bought a george forman fat buster grill thing as she wanted to cook peppers and chicken to put on her salad at lunch i thought that was a teeny bit poncey i myself was happy with
beans and sausage on toast cooked on the good old camping stove obv

yy be paranoid giggle If you've ever thought to look in someone's shopping basket while shopping just think what they thought of your bed hair and double your in tent conversations that you thought were private

[gigglewitch]

I have an er, um, acquaintance (can't call her friend) who turned up on a field with no facilities with her hairdryer and wanted to pitch her tent at the bottom of the hill . It rained and the said tent became a boat. Possibly her last camping trip?

The 'loud parenting' brigade.. The ones who ponce off reporting every event in their childrens life.
They are 10 times worse in a field.

I've just been at a poncetastic campsite. The farm shop only had organic produce from the farm. No tins, soap, matches, nothing useful. Just organic meat and milk and wine at £10 a bottle. And organic courgettes and thyme.

I was reading my children wholesome classic bedtime stories but was outclassed in literary terms by the woman in the next door tent reading unabridged Shakespeare to her 8 and 6 year olds.
