March 2017 - Photo Competition

[rogerblack]

Continuing on from my rather camp winning entry last month, I'd like to set this month's photo competition subject as

CAMPING .

This can include any activities (but keep it clean!) including tents, trailer tents, caravans, motorhomes or sleeping under the stars.

If there is any nautical/boating involvement too then all the better and as with last month's competition humorous or just plain silly entries will be much appreciated.

Over to you!

OK here we go, lets kick this Month off the start line.

April 2011 first trip to Loch Lomond with my 14' Portabote & fishing/boating buddy Danny.

Sausages and beer - well it was a late breakfast!

So when we go camping we love a bit of style......

Nice glamping setup. Was considering something similar. Is that an A/C unit in the corner and can you tell more about it? Curious for my own family.

Think we should have a whole thread about everyone's setup and photos. Can get some great ideas.

I agree, 9-R
We appear to have a few campers, caravanners and the motorhome crew aboard. We do have a topic on this, but its just a general one...

Okay 9-R the tent is a coleman cortes octogan 8 tent and is fundamentaly a summer set up only. It has a fly net inner and a water risistant outer with windows on ever side so its very breezey for mega hot days. That was actualy a heater 9 not a aircon unit but to be fair its the uk......lol no need for aircon altho that week it was red hot!!!

We have a coleman durarest airbed which has amazing reviews and has been run over with quad bikes etc in videos and foes not burst. it does not dip or anything when you move around on it due to an air chamber design but costs a bit for essentialy an airbed...... does not go down tho if you insulate underneath it.

We also have a very decent refrigerant coolbox and all the mod cons such as kitchen clothes rack etc etc.
Comfy set up for a good week away and the best bit is the tent is maffis especialy for 2 of you and you have a shed load of head room stood up.

We also have an event shelter as an extra social area again coleman
