My understanding is that a layer of air can help insulate a sleeping body, stopping the cold from the ground seeping into our bones. In order for the air to stay put tho, a stopper is needed in the air bed. Currently we have an air bed but no stopper. Still this is an improvement on the situation yesterday evening when I was turning the contents of the garage upside down, failing to locate various essentials. A grumpy low point was reached when I declared I wasn't going without finding the cooker as I could not survive for 3 days without a cup of tea.
Shortly afterwards, the cooker, kettle, cutlery etc was located in the loft. Hurrah!
I don't yet feel geared up for the camping season - can you tell?
I can't even spell canoeing. (can now!) I'm a tad apprehensive about going on this weekend. Whilst there is the potential for lots of fun - there's abseiling and rock climbing and canoeing and all sorts, I'm also aware that what I'd really like is 3 days snuggled up under a duvet in a centrally heated house nursing my throat back to full health. I have stuffed my suitcase full of layers. I will cram as many duvets as will fit into the car. I will try and dig deep into my attitude to find one that is optimistic rather than the current grumpy reluctance.
