I enjoyed watching the video. As for your situation. I completely understand. You see I've never made it clear why i don't camp overnight anymore. Because of my wife's deteriorating health I had to take early retirement as she needs 24hour supervision. Right now, she has a carer two days a week which gives me time to go do what I enjoy. For 5 hours. It is an amazing thing you are doing for your father. Its a truly selfless act. Stay well 🙏

Did Glenridding to Silver Bay, brew stop and back to Glenridding. 5:27 - Very visible lack of skeg to keep the boat in a straight line.

I use a Vango Ark 300+ with Adventure Tarp for week long camps, it is ideal for one person or even 2? Very comfortable space albeit being compact. It has a good porch area. This also states about 7 minutes to put up, but takes me about 3 hours!!!! Also to take down and pack all the kit. I don't drive but get dropped off at a camping site. I have now bought the Vango Soul 100 for a weekend stay via bus, so kit needs to be light. Have not used it yet, and do feel apprehensive about it looking so claustrophobic, I am 5'2". I will again use the Adventure tarp that should extend on the front area and also protect the door if it does rain. I would only rarely use the Vango Soul I feel, but ok for weekend it being an event so not spending too much time in the tent. My long term idea was to get a small tent anyway to store items in when I am camping with the Ark, folding chair, stove, cushions etc otherwise at night the entire tent gets chocka blocked. Good storage tent if nothing else :-) .

That's a really good idea there Jaya, use it as a storage area. It's a great idea for use with the camper van as space can get a little tight in there.

It's only a couple of tinnies heavier and a fraction of the cost of the blue tissue one😂. Which is important. Great top trumps Leon,you had the best back of cards there. All the best lads.
