A cat litter tray

🤣🤣 if my orange floof can share ?!

jackstini · 21/04/2026 18:50

A book, Alexa, and some clothes hanging on the wardrobe door that DH has ironed today

CandyEnclosingInvisible · 21/04/2026 18:50

A broken pot that needs mending. A box of tissues, a blanket and a bunch of sofa cushions, and my bag containing my wallet and a bottle of water. I think I'll be ok so long as the campsite has a shop.

Harveywoo · 21/04/2026 18:50

Sage and an outdoor water feature that refuses to pump water. It won’t end well for me will it…?

Tenniswhites · 21/04/2026 18:51

As luck would have it I’m sitting looking at a packed carry-on case full of clothes and a tote full of toiletries, straighteners and shoes.

Not sure how suitable for camping it all is though!

Cantyouseethishorselovesme · 21/04/2026 18:51

Large tartan throw, one cushion, one snoring cat (on the cushion) and a packet of Jaffa Cakes, which is my pudding after DH has finished cooking dinner.

Boredwiththeoldusername · 21/04/2026 18:51

A snoring cat! 😼

Whosthetabbynow · 21/04/2026 18:51

Cat. Lamp. Box of tissues.

Side table - with a coaster, lip balm, eye drops, 2 pens, diffuser and candle!

Excellent !

AClassicTrenchcoat · 21/04/2026 18:51

A can of Diet Coke, a coaster, a tissue, a side table.

greglet · 21/04/2026 18:52

A hand towel and a loo roll.

Rubyupbeat · 21/04/2026 18:53

My collie.

Intensivedays · 21/04/2026 18:53

A mug with half a centimetre of cold tea in it, another mug that's empty, some vitamin supplements and an Alexa remote control.

liveforsummer · 21/04/2026 18:54

The dog (Jack Russell) so a good guard and hit were bottle. I’ll be ok!

Listlostlast · 21/04/2026 18:54

A lot of books. Heavy on the tractor ted, Julia Donaldson and hairy mclary books specifically, amongst others of course. And a bookcase, but that would be a pain to bring so I’ll leave that I think. I’m in my 4yo sons room waiting for him to go to sleep 😂

WhatALiberty8 · 21/04/2026 18:54

A fluffy blanket and the remote control.

csandsickofit · 21/04/2026 18:55

Tv remote and the cat. Camping in a tent with a Maine Coon could be … interesting!

CarolinaInTheMorning · 21/04/2026 18:55

A coffee table, a Welsh Corgi lying under the coffee table, and on the coffee table, a shoe horn, my phone, the TV remote, a glass of water, my reading glasses, a tennis ball, and another partially chewed up tennis ball.

No worries though. I went camping once trying to impress a boyfriend in 1984. Never again.

JBJ · 21/04/2026 18:55

A pillow, crocheted blanket, kindle, neck massager and a lamp!

Taytocrisps · 21/04/2026 18:55

My work bag (not my handbag).

I'm not sure how useful my work diary will be. Or make up wipes.

My umbrella and woolly hat will help to keep out the elements.

There are three socks (my feet got wet one day and I changed into dry socks).

There's a pair of knickers. I've no idea why they're there. I can assure you I didn't get up to anything saucy in the office.

There are some iron tablets and a tube of Zovirax. The latter might be useful if I develop a cold sore.

I'm likely to get quite hungry.

ForestHare · 21/04/2026 18:56

A cushion, all my hrt, the last 1kg bag of mini eggs and diet dr pepper, my latest embroidery kit and my wallet

danglethedingle · 21/04/2026 18:56

A side table with several half read books, an empty coffee cup, a coaster and 3 hair ties.

And the dog has just plonked himself down on my right, with a deep sigh and a look reproach because there is a cushion in his spot on the sofa to my left, and he has to sit on the floor like an animal.

Hotel key cards, tin lids from room service, hotel phone, 3 large boxes of chocolates, 1 tin of chocolates, 1 bottle sparkling wine.

I’m going to die out there in the wilds aren’t I?

At least you won't suffer from constipation.

NancyJoan · 21/04/2026 18:57

My trainers, an old copy of Grazia, and a framed print from a gallery. I’ll be fine.
