Grown out of camping?
You don't like inexpensive weekends away?

Vous parlez de ton cul.

It's freezing in the morning, shower facilities are at the bottom of the field and usually communal
and most of the time it's really uncomfortable. I can just about put up with it for a couple of days if I've an air mattress, fleece on top, sheet on top of that, duvet and additional blankets plus pillows.

If not, fuck that. I'll stay in a b&b where I've a proper bed and my shower with proper hot water. And a decent kitchen, not a shitty gas stove.

Monsieur, you have to have all the equipment.
PROPER equipment. MAN style.

One time investment.
Most of the stuff has been accumulated over years. Old kitchen stuff goes into wooden wine bottle holders, that sort of thing.

Got proper double airbed with sheets, duvets etc. Leccy pump. As you say, sitting around in the summer with a spliff in a field is great.

I have done both types of camping (cue smutty remarks)
The 'everything and the kitchen sink' type in a large 6-berth frame tent at various campsites around the UK, and the 'if it ain't on your back it ain't going' type all over Europe.
In all fairness, for family camping with kids you need facilities, if it's just you and some mates, roughing it is perfectly acceptable.
