ajmac Posted March 20, 2010 Share Posted March 20, 2010 Well..... I have booked the required days off work, my best friend is coming down to A&E along with my wife and our little 6 month old daughter and we would like to camp. What would you all recomend? Whare are the majority of us going to stay over night? I'd love to kip under a Sherman but I'm sure the little one wouldn't be so happy about it!

David Ives Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 get one of jacks 9x9 tents and two argos camp beds the metal ones and a travel cot together with some good sleeping bags and you will be fine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowtracdave Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 I'd go along with that - or maybe a couple of folding alloy ex mil beds from Anchor or similar . Not sure if Jack still has 9x9's available these days and you might find one a little small for three of you . Guess a lot depends on the weather & how much time you have to spend 'indoors' .

Tony B Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 Worth there weight in gold! A couple of silk sleeping bag liners. Easier than cleaning teh whole bag, and if it's really warm great on there own. Sleeping under tanks, not advised. They may decide to settle during the night.

Willyslancs Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 i agree with regards to the tank , my dad lost a colleague during national service that way . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajmac Posted March 21, 2010 Author Share Posted March 21, 2010 Right, under a Tank is out.... it will have to be our trusty old tent. I am subscribed to PF so my wife and I should get in free, ?question is how do we order the tickets in advance? I'll get my mate to book his ticket from the A&E website.

Big ray Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 i agree with regards to the tank , my dad lost a colleague during national service that way . The answer......... sleep on top of the tank !!!! Seriously a 9x9 is great, you just need decent beds, even better sleeping bags, and you will be just fine. Have fun.:cool2: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrian Barrell Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 You're more than welcome to sleep under my Sherman, it's never been known to sink overnight. I would suggest the front, unless you like oil drips on your sleeping bag....... I'll be in my tent, it's the green one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
