What is sex? Don't think i remember that
We have two children and fortunately they are heavy sleepers Anyway lets face it noise travels much farther than the next room when you are camping/ Last year we had a young couple staying about 20 yards from us and i had to sleep with my pillow over my head

This is Pear tree

sadly the 'wrong' side of Wareham as the traffic was horrendous and the bloke who ran it was severly grumpy!

hopefully they've also done up the toilet block since last year - there was no way it was a 4 star site!

we did have a good time though!

I do not get tent porn. We have a vintage tent. 1970s orange frame tent with green and black stripes. It's big, it's robust, you can stand up in it and there is plenty of room for rainy day activities.

I don't like pods. Or tunnels. And don't get me started on Cath Kidston.

I also look askance at matching sets of folding chairs and tables.

Grrr at camping becoming fashionable...

Actually I realy want a boy scout white heavy canvas jobby with huge thick ropey guyopes, with a hand-made luggae rack fashioned from sticks...

We camped like that when i was a kid becky and tbh we thought about buying the old style canvas type of tent last year when a friend was selling hers but in the end the new style of tents are easier to look after and put up as well as being lighter and taking up less space in the car.
