I know you all love a bit of shopping. Come and help me find a

[Washersaurus]

new large and comfortable airbed (as ours is old and punctured)

and an extra wide luxury sleeping bag (as we are considering leaving our mattress topper and feather duvet and pillows behind)

Best prices possible please ladies, we do have a budget

Aerobed - that's what you need - pref a raised one. Homebase had them going cheap last time I was in but ebay or Tesco direct is the cheapest.

Know bugger all about sleeping bags sorry.

Ah but at least you bothered to reply wmmc . Thank you I am looking at the aerobeds now - is there a special one for camping or will any one do?

Actually aerobeds are no good unless you can get an electric supply - can you?

Sorry now I'm just being a PITA - but I felt sorry for your lonely post

www.ukcampsite.co.uk/articles/view.asp?id=188 Aerobed review!

If it had been a tent search I would have had many replies

I've seen some bad reviews for aerobeds whilst searching....do you have one?

Apparently Amazon is the place for advice on sleeping bags - look at the reviews on the products

A family is camping in the woods when a brown bear walks up to the family. Before they can run screaming away, the bear says something. He says, "Hello, how is it going? Do you have any........honey?" The father says, "I'm sorry but we don't. But, what was with the large pause?" The bear looks down at his paws and says, "I don't know, I just have always had them."

Hehe thanks wmmc. Not sure about aerobed now, the camping one isn't raised and has a special detachable pump - meaning I'd have to take 2 pumps (one for aerobed, one for other beds)
