Towsure have a single one for £30 - tbh thats all I need.

I've noticed there on Ebay. But there just cheap homemade jobs with no circuit breaker or anything.

Thinking about it now, and it might be worth going for. That way I can continue to go camping during the winter time and early next year, and have a little heater going on a night to keep me warm.

Yep steer well clear of the fleabay stuff for sure.

£30 isn't bad, if it keeps ya warm and means you can camp when you want then all the better.

Hey Dan 

 you should be finding yourself a nice partner to keep you warm...

seriously though we did a camping trip to Ireland two winters ago (snow and ice and a frozen tent) - thermals are a must - definitely a good thick fleece between you and the bed and plenty of layers on top. Wooly hat to sleep in too - you lose most of your heat from your head. Paul ses I have more layers than an onion when we camp in winter.

Enjoy your birthday too.

Regards

jan

Haha! Already got a girlfriend but she's a wimp, ain't up for going camping how boring!  Might have to call it off, if she asks why I'll tell her it's cos you don't like camping! lol!

 

Yepo, so just plenty of extra layers sounds like the thing to do. I can't afford a EHU lead. But I'm going Exeter Friday so hopefully pick up a gas heater. I would buy an EHU lead, but next year I'll be using the caravan so won't have no use for it.

Thanks, think of me on my B-day freezing cold at a campsite in the rain! lol

So you got yourself a wimpy non camper then (lol) I hope she will be happier with the luxuries of your new mobile love shack (He he)

Get that towing hitch sorted and you will soon be out and about and warmer too.

In the meantime we shall all think of you on your birthday and hope you have a lovely time whatever the weather.
