My trusted 7yo double airbed developed a leak late afternoon, the poor dog thought he had done something wrong when he found himself sinking in the bed, quite funny to watch!

Good job I am only 6 miles from home, so I dashed back and got the single airbed out of the garage to save the night.

I expect the single airbed will leak at some point in the future.

Need to spec a new non-airbed bed now, as I do not wish to find myself without a bed in the middle of the night in the middle of nowhere.

Most likely to be the Outwell Posadas Double Foldaway, and the dog can sleep on the spare side!

Striking camp today, which is a shame as I really enjoyed my stay.

Next trip should be a 3-nighter at one of the Forest Camping Holiday sites in Gloucestershire in Feb 2012, 2 nights will be free as it is my prize from UKCS for my tent review on the Escala 4 (thank you UKCS).

I think it was Victoria who first suggested a camp bed with a SIM on top. I already have a SIM from a previous failed experiment so I am seriously considering getting a camp bed for this coming year since my new Intex leaks.
