camping in garden

[mousey]

Cheers Sniper, I'm live nearer Edinburgh but I'll keep that in mind mate.

Well I didn't end up sleeping in the tent at night cause it was too cold for me!

Better to wait a month or so I think till the better weather eh.

You managed to kip in the garden yet?

I did loads when younger at home. Unfortunatley not got a camping friendly garden now [chuckies everywhere - trying to rectify that though]

Still I stick a tent up with big thick blanket under for the kids to play in.

One advantage if you do need the toilet in the night you don't have to go dig a hole. Also if you forget something it's not too far away.

My kids love camping in the garden. They are out tonight, at least my son is, my daughter has taken my two person tent to a friends house, where they are sleeping out in it!

Last week, they both slept out under my old poncho to celebrate the end of school.

Garden camping is massively under-rated. I remember in the deep dark recesses of my mind being inspired by a Scout, who was being interviewed on Blue Peter, after sleeping in his tent every night for a year or something.

Not having a garden maybe I should try kipping on my balcony, trouble is I would wake up under a layer of pigeon guano
