Very good

Well that is it, holidays booked in at work, time to start with the camping equipment purchases! It is our Anniversary so I need to make the sleeping arrangements as palatial as is possible in a tent! I can't stretch to any of the hospitality packages, any one have any suggestions for making it memorable for SWMBO?
Cheers

Excitement is definitely building now, can't wait!!
Anyone got any suggestions for must have camping equipment? We are booked into the camping that comes with the tickets, not sure what there is in the way of facilities?
