Oi Skatty, who you calling waxy ears. My ears are shiny clean and wax free i'll have you know, they have to be for my hearing aids. it's the amount of wine thats not left in the bottle that affects my ability to read posts properly
Did Duke of Ed where you carry everything in your back pack, no room for tv, heater etc.
Did go camping Aug bank holiday with family ( hubby, 5y old and toddler) and at night we were so cold I vowed never to camping again without a heater!! The toddler spent nearly an hour shivering in my in laws caravan.
The 1st time with electric we just took some lights, heater and elec cool box.
2nd time, the above plus mobile charger, travel kettle, camera charger, hairdryer, fairy lights for gazebo. We did take a mini tv just in case we had bad weather but never turned it on.
If we didn't have kid, would probably not bothered with the electric but now weve got it we'll enjoy our holidays in comfort.
I normally go on myself or with a very close friend of mine,
When i/we go for a few days we dont normallly bother with EHU, i/we normally take extra batteries for phone, laptop but when we go for a week or two i need EHU as i require to charge my phone and laptop, as i run my own web based Arts & Craft company.
I agree with Lancsguy, camping is about going back to basics!! If you want to take a TV and heater then get a caravan! Camping is all about fresh air, and back to basics!
I'll never have electric when I go camping, I just personnaly don't see the point in it.

Camping is about doing what you want. I don't recall getting a leaflet with my tent saying electric was not allowed.

Exactly! Camping is about doing what YOU want! I'm just saying to me, I would never use electric when camping - the idea of camping IMO is to escape colour TV's and heaters etc!
Hey Dan. I don't go down the electric route either for the same reasons but also think there is nothing wrong with people who do. I just gets my goat when people try and push their views on what is right and wrong. Rant over and carry on camping.
I wasn't trying to push my views on anyone! I agree, I hate people who force there views on people! I was just saying personnaly I don't see the point, and off course If people want to use it then fair enough, It's upto them!
