well weve done it.....got that first time over and done with.

All that time spent researching which tent we were going to get and what bits we were going to have and where we were going to go, it was sooooo worth it.

we'd never done camping before and didnt know if it be a great success or one of those bad memories that you try to erase from your brain.

we went to tanners farm park in marden in kent for a weekend, had gloroius weather after the initial forcast was for rain rain and more rain.

we didnt take anything that we didnt end up using,and have decided that we CAN manage without EHU.

the only down side was it got bloomin' cold at night and even with my vango nightstar 350 and a fleece and a small child as my 'hottie bottie' i was still cold for most of the night.

but it hasnt put me off, i cant wait to go again.

looking forward to having a whole week away next time.

i just had the air bed on the floor and the sleeping bag on top of that with the fleece on top.

should have had something on the air bed shouldnt i? dohhh.

i will do that next time,looking forward to a cosy night.x

• we were in cornwall easter it was that cold some slept in shower block we were ok in our montana it has foam mattrasis put sleepin bag on top then one over us it was ok but we are off floor which does help

Good info re blanket/newspaper under air bed. I don't usually have a problem with the cold, but if I do get chilly, it's virtually impossible to warm up again.

Thanks
