I suspect I'm going to have problems with mine when it comes to camping etc.
She has purportedly expressed excitement about going away in the camper van (if its ever finished) however based on the fact they the other day she was expressing concern of how she would survive 6 weeks in a bunk bed in a holiday cottage while going a mapping project I suspect that she probably wont cope with no-mod cons camping...
She didn't really react well to me suggesting she needed harden the **** up a bit, seeing how I have spent several months living in a tent in the desert, and regularly end up staying in a swag (bivvy) and that is often the life of a field geologist.
Though I will confess that last time I was in the swag I had to make exceptions to the fact it was still nearly 40C at 10pm...

We will be camping in Addingham Yorkshire for two nights for the Grand Départ and then for five nights soon after for the C2C with my son's school cycling group.
I plan to take midge repellent, mossie coils, insecticide spray and Avon Forest Fern (or whatever it's called) and some camping kit.
Autumn camping in BC taught me to go to bed wearing a hat. Toasty warm 8)

Hey, is that where the dog walkers got the idea from?
You could take the other course of action. I walked into Barrisdale in Knoydart with a backpacking tent, small stove two pans a dog and my mrs from that london. Bothy having a toilet was the only comfort. She loved it.
compared to the missus i'm city-like - and i love camping/bivvying/campervanning!
