Tent

Our 'tent' - tarpaulin threaded through twine strung up between two trees and pegged down with twigs, with a mosquito net knotted up inside to create a flysheet.

Omg that's not a tent. Surely you didn't sleep in that did you??

[Boxplayer]

@fueast - oh god yes.

Not sure if my back would stand up to this....

[Boxplayer]

@andycoleborn - mine didn't very well, especially after a day of first-time canoeing ...

[Carolyn White]

You're a stronger woman than I am! That's really basic camping.

[FunnyFace]

You must've been cold and wet! Kudos tho '-)

[Boxplayer]

@blightygal - not cold, and surprisingly not wet underneath this thing. But the ground was bloody hard - too hard for an old lady like me.

[FunnyFace]

@boxplayer Wow, if I didnt know what a nice person you are, I'd think you were fibbing, lol. Yeah, the old back gets a bit tetchy as we get old huh?! Inflatable mattress on your xmas list?!

[Boxplayer]

@blightygal - well it would be if I was planning to do much of this!

[Jan Hall]

All I can say is .... Why????

[Boxplayer]

@jantan - it was Dave's 50th birthday present!

[Jan Hall]

Lucky Dave! I bought my husband a day on a pig keeping course for his!
