I love the people you meet when you're camping.
We camped with another family this week - friend of mine and her DH and kids. We spent most of the time dissecting the other campers and good fun it was too.
For example....
Dad on his own with three children aged about 7, 5 and 4 in a tiny pop up Quechua tent which would ideally sleep one small puppy! They all went to bed at 8.30pm. I had to be held back from actually asking him "where the hell/how the hell did you all sleep in that tent?".
The family that lived 6 miles from the campsite and had the most AMAZING aerobeds which were like a double divan and the woman called everyone "Doll" and was fabulous to talk to but did know everything about everything and had the best equipment known to man and campers! She was pitched next to the play area and rounded up everyone's kids for rounders and cricket and poker games!!
The family with motorhome and awning that I drooled over every time I went past and wondered how a person affords such a thing (they are soooo expensive, even ones that are fifty years old and have a clapped out engine).
Anyway, tell me about the people you meet camping Doll.....
