I've just had a quick tally up, and I'm at 32 nights, and of that 30 nights are scouting related camps! The last one being Saturday night, where I took my Explorer scouts to a24 activity event. They were off busy doing activities all night, I had a great nights kip in the hammock.

I have another 4 nights planned away with my Explorers this year, and doubt I'll rack up any more, as in November our first child will be born. :D

lost count , can,t even remember where most of them were (age thing I hope) but as a lot of them were in my VW camper van I can,t really count them on here to be fair(can I) just back from 8 days in GT. Dorset steam fair (fantastic show)and then Somerset .
I,ve spent most of the other times in a tent never tried a tarp to camp under or sleeping in a hammock ,most of my tent forays are carried out whilst motorcycle touring
but hope to do more on foot soon.

In September we were able to get out for a long weekend of paddling in northern Alberta and had the good fortune to howl with the wolves. Many times I have heard brief howls, but this was the first sustained experience (2 hours) where they would respond immediately and make the landscape vibrate. Good times.

Just back from three days walking (From the Cotswolds to the Wye Valley via the Severn Bridge) so that brings me up to 32 nights camping in 2011. My New Year's resolution was to spend at least a month (a 31 day month - not February!) out under canvas (or, rather, silnylon).

Might get a couple more in before the year is out...
