Planning my next camp...


 







So the first therapeutic camping trip went great, so much so, in fact that I stayed an extra night when it became clear the campsite was new and wasn't going to fill up (despite being the last bank holiday of the summer break)...it was both relaxing and liberating... 

Now school holidays are over I can start to have a look and see what the *normal* costs of camping are going to be like around here and what sort of facilities are to be had now the kids and parents are back on the school run...

I'm going to play it really safe again this time - within about 30 minutes from rescue - electricity from the pitch (that sort of thing) - and it would have been nice to have some sort of shop (just in case I had kicked over the vegetable oil or something silly like that)...I'm sure it will all be fine again.

I can see this working it's way towards more off grid, tarps and hammocks, fire pits etc. I want to learn how to make yakitori (for example) and I want to get some sort of solar solution going before I get completely off grid...but softly softly catchy monkey...
