Hi (again!)
I was just wondering if anyone knows of any stockists of "retro" camping gear. Am thinking the sort of stuff you might have found on safari 30 years ago! Canvas sinks on wooden legs, old-fashioned picnic stuff, that sort of thing. Sorry a bit obscure, any advice much appreciated! (and thanks to those who replied to my question about heaters, very helpful indeed!)

I think Ebay is probably your best bet!
