AIBU to take fairy lights camping.

[watchoutforthatsnail]

It would be truely poncey, wouldnt it and ill be lynched by other campers, yes?

Fun idea!

YABVU. Are you having bunting too?

How will you plug them in?

I take tea lights and a couple of jam jars!

Yep - poncetastic. I always do though

I think it sounds lovely.

Will you also be playing Van Morrison and wearing tie dye clothes?

I do. Twinkly & poncey.
Get solar ones.

I put Rob Ryan bunting and fairy lights up on the awning of my beautiful camper van. I don't get lynched. I do get a constant parade of people cooing and admiring, and a queue of small children wanting their picture taken though.

Lovely idea.

I wouldn't lynch you.... I would be jealous :)

Why? Never understood the need tbh

Good idea, you wouldnt have a problem
Spotting the tent when you've been to the loo in the night and try to get into the wrong tent like I did

You'd be surprised what other people take camping.

Your tent will look normal and tame!

If you've got the lights though, I'd invest in some citronella tea lights/candles to get rid of the flies etc

In fact I'd make sure you had them full stop

I saw some on a couple of tents when camping at the weekend, I was and I want some too.

Will also aid tent ID when returning from necessary nocturnal journeys to the lavs. Although we use a wee bottle And will look purty while we chat round the campfire.

Yeah our tent's lit up like a christmas tree!
I am packing to go camping as we speak. I have four sets of lights, two hurrican lamps and a tealight chandelier!
Love iiiiiit!

I have also got 12 metres of indian bunting.

We take those little solar lights on spikey bits laughs hollowly at solar part and glow sticks for the children - they are brilliant nightlights, they keep glowing for hours and hours. I'd take firelights but the boys would happen to them and DH would laugh and sabotage them as poncey

fairylights even, not firelights

AND 60 metres of colour block bunting too.

I am off to a four day music festival today though. Normally we wouldn't have 60 metres of bunting with us....but we'd always take all the rest camping. Oh yes!

The bunting is for wrapping round our circle of (10 or so) tents to deter drunks from stumbling through our campsite. It really works.

TheFogs - we have a wee bucket

To bloody far to traipse to the toilet block when you could end up getting lost beacuse you're still very tipsy

It's your holiday, and if the twinkly fairy lights will make it more special for you, then go for it! I think it sounds like a lovely idea. To be honest, I would have fairy lights everywhere if I could get away with it.

Oh - as long as they are white (not that blue-y white, and definitely not coloured). If they are coloured, YABVVVU.

Me too SDT x

ok, thats sold it, they are coming. i have electric hook up... it will be fab.
and poncetastic.

:)

just need to work out how to secure them....

I use twist ties.

For food storage bags - you know that sort of thing?
