Hi all, been a member on this site for quite some years, we used to camp quite a bit but then decided to get a caravan, what a mistake that was, people were mostly miserable and only wanted to talk about chemical toilets etc,,, So we decided we would get back to camping, I have just bought a used Outwell Idaho xl for £100, fantastic condition too, we have been buying a few bit and bobs to get us going again as we sold all our old gear when we took up with the caravan way of life. So I'm looking forward to getting away in our new tent pretty soon, just need to buy a few more bits and pieces now.. Exiting times!!
Don't forget to leave a review of all tents you've used, for a chance to win fantastic prizes
Hi kevtore999 welcome back from the dark side
We too sold the caravan and returned to tenting

Everything has been said before, but since nobody ever listens we have to keep going back and saying it all over again and again and again
Good to be back in the real world, already ordered a few bits of camping gear that we need, regret selling all our old camping gear, we had everything and sold it all for next to nothing, ahh well lesson learnt. I don't recognize any names of people on here apart from Tentz but I think they have been here since day one...
Anyone know any nice sites in west wales, seen a few on here but I'm undecided!!
Great stuff kevtore999, you know it makes sense to return back to camping in a tent. Those tin tenters can be a bit strange
Also, fantastic choice of tent too. We have had our Idaho XL since 2009. They are great tents with lost of space inside. You will not be disappointed. Happy camping and welcome back
