As we're borrowing a tent we've not put up before, we did a dry run last night, so that when it comes to the actual event, it hopefully won't matter if it's throwing it down as predicted. I've also gone through our usual camping gear and whittled it down to the bare essentials. No set of saucepans for us now I've worked out a menu of one pot meals. Out with the superfluous fork and excess kitchen roll!
I've weighed out just the right amount of pasta, and worked out the likely number of needed teabags. And because it's important to retain my generosity in the face of the travelling light, I've popped in an extra teabag just in case I want to offer someone a brew ;)
The internet coverage is apparently very limited so I'll have to see what i can manage in terms of blogging. I find it frustrating on my phone at the best of times so we'll see - hopefully I'll be able to at least check in :)
I will hopefully meet Pip Wilson again - he's ace. His blog today brought tears to my eyes:
