The tent is so cold it feels wet, my air bed is half deflated, I keep waking he baby up wriggling about and I’m FREEZING cold, so I’ve come down to the car to charge my phone a bit and put the blowers on. It is BLISS.

AIBU to either stay here for the rest of the night or very naughty drive up to the campsite and sleep in the car next to my tent?

Assuming baby isn't alone, stay there. No idea re driving car up, depends what the access is and the rules are. You'd probably wake everyone up.

Sleep in the car with baby! Drive to the tent. Double date!

frasier · 28/05/2018 01:26

Whoops meant double dare

Go back and get the baby and drive to a hotel.

CantankerousCamel · 28/05/2018 01:31

Baby is fast asleep. With husband and two children. No way am I driving to a hotel at 1.30am!

I would like to be a bit closer to her but she’s fine and will probably sleep a ton better without me waking her up. Although if she does wake in the night it will probably piss my husband off no end

Whose tent did he think you had gone to?

CantankerousCamel · 28/05/2018 04:32

We met a gaggle of scouse fairy tellers last night and completely feel in love with all of them. If I was tent-hopping, it would have been there...

Sounds like fun to be honest, I wish the weather was better for you.

Buggeritimgettingup · 28/05/2018 05:20

If your staying another night you need to put something under your airbed tonstop tje cols rising up from the ground. Poundland space blankets are OK or better withtill them and a mat/rug/ or blanket. Also if you blow your airbed up wjen it's warm the air will contract wine it cools so blow it up pre bedtime but not in daytimee heat.
