Not sure it would need a whole thread:
1) How to sleep in the back of a Citroen - do you know I don't even know what the name of the model is? A small one, not quite long enough to put a bike in without turning the bars a bit. I suspect a mattress will do the job.
2) Anyone know any campsites near Ft. William that will allow me to 'pitch' my Van next to my mate’s tents so I can join in with the nightly weed and Kumbaya sessions?
I have a proper tent, impervious to all weather, takes bloody ages to put up though so I've also got a fairly cheap (£50?) Decathlon 2 seconds which is awesome for car camping, and has never done anything I don't like.
Also it's the world cup- what are the odds you'll wake up hungover? Being hungover in a hot tent is a living hell. So I'd get this: https://www.decathlon.co.uk/2-seconds-easy-ii-freshblack-pop-up-tent-2-man-id_8357352.html
It's not so much more expensive than the worst tent you can possibly buy, but it'll do the job miles better, and be more comfortable for feeling wretched in because you've drunk too much warm red wine out of a bag and cedric gracia made you do shots.

Fairly slim, I'm not a big drinker - I've decided 'drugs' are the answer due to their low weight and compact nature.
I've upped my budget a bit and will go shopping around for a Vango of some description in Autumn.
I used a 25 quid Argos tent for an occasional lightweight 1-man tent for about 10 years. Binned in June when the pegging tapes started to perish.
I use a 30 quid 4 man asda / walmart tent. Seems invincible and if you're not bothered about weight I don't see why you'd spend more. The one I had before (the same one but different colour) lasted 8 years odd, including multiple festivals and being hit by the tail end of Hurricane Katrina on a spit on the west coast of Scotland. The tent was literally blown flat with us inside it, but it didn't break - several motorhomes were blown over on the same campsite, so the wind wasn't d*cking around!
