Sounds like a average first trip away.

I spent ages instisting they hadn't given me enough poles for the awning the first time then realised that the poles extended.

As for the water we use the water for tea etc as it has been boiled. We don't drink it other wise.

As for the toilet in the middle of the night the other thing I found great was the heating, no worrying about waking up cold just chuck the fire on.

We never drink the water from the caravan tap we have a ten litre container that lives in the porch awning. Glad you had a good weekend.

Yeah we're the same drinking water comes from bottles filled up at the appropriate point on site. My parents came with us to Grassington and stayed in a tourer they'd hired for a couple of nights. Van was probably 25 years old and looked like it'd been stood for a while, first thing my Dad did was pour himself a glass of water and straight down the neck! Well lets just say he wasn't very well. To be fair he wasn't to know I suppose, found out the hard way!

I went to the top of the mountain...and looked over the other side!
