do you need a footpump to put a tent up? funny lot these campers, i am thinking maybe they turned an evolutionary corner the rest of mankind ignored. but given the choice of a weekend camping or a visit to the dentist i think the camping would win.

Seems to me xj that if the camping was for a longer period than just the weekend, the decision may come down in favour of the Dentist .

Bad news guys, unfortunately i will only be able to camp friday night, family commitments (which everyone forgot to tell me) means i need to be in portsmouth on the sunday. so will only be camping friday night and coming home saturday night. if i take the motorways back for quickness i can stay till late saturday night so as not to miss out on too much.
still not all bad news, only one day living like a troglodyte and i am back in reality. having gone thru the pysching myself up for the excrutiating experience i don't want to give up on it completely, besides i've already bought me bloody tent.

oi you lot, do you realise how much emotional stress i am under at the moment, knowing that in 17 days i will be sleeping in something that is effectively a very large persons t shirt. i am having nightmares about waking up with a cow staring me in the face, i am getting tremors, cold sweats, panic attacks and all you do is take the pee, talking of which if i wake up in the middle of the night for one where do i go without urinating on somebody else and how the fek do i find my own tent again. and all this without tripping over some other paper bag and breaking me bleeding neck.
i think i am being extremely brave by even posting on a ca... cam.... camping thread.

Don't worry to much xj u always find urge own tent even when everything around u is dark it's the homing instinct of the lesser spotted camp(er) biker and anyway if you get the wrong one it might be the best thing that happens to you all weekend lol

XJ Dont worry we will make sure your safe and you find your tent. As for waking up with a cow staring you in the face we cant be held responsible for your choice in bed partners.

then there the possiblity of rain....so a plastic bag is preferable to a paper one..

Jeez xj put your tent up on the rough stone area near the toilet, there's a standpipe nearby, if you leave the water running you won't sleep much therefor lessening the chances of waking up with a cow! Have you never done this "outdoor pursuit" malarkey before?

Just found this thread. It is unlikely that I will have the final drive fixed on the beemer before KISS. I have a choice of the little 250 Yami or the van. May bring it in the van so I can at least get a ride out. XJ I can bring a variety of tents that you can practice putting up. I said "puting up", not pissing up. See all you guys there on the Friday

I'm looking at only doing legal speeds if using the motorway to Oxford, Dave, so the yam should be ok.

Chris, Just to clarify the meeting point at Oxford, it is on the A40, presumably the Oxford ring road and NOT the Oxford Services on the M40. Is this correct ??, I'm not familiar with that area.

Whilst i thank you all for your words of encouragement and offers of a fabric overload to practise on i did see one word that sent a chill to my very soul. RAIN........ Wtf, where did that come from. So in the best boy scout tradition i decided to be prepared, and would you believe it, there is a premier inn one mile from the site. I can walk a mile even when pissed so maybe this won't be such an epic after all. A HOTEL soooooo close by. Yipeeeee. Life is good.

And zzrbabe i only ever do legal speeds,

If you come off the M40 at junction 8 onto the A40 after about 3 miles there's a lay by with a burger van and bogs before the ring road. there's a sign post on the A40. Any idiot can ride fast zzr
