    Great video, camping in the garden takes me back to being a kid in the 70s, had an old 2 man army tent, no ground sheet loved it.

    Loved this video! Such a cool tent I bet that was so much fun chill-out in, looked well cosy!
    I got to agree with Zoe about the beach smell = doughnuts 🍩. Maybe a posh beach but I’m used to Skeggy 😂.
    Jacket potatoes looked well nice 😋.

    We tried to go camp site camping last week but this stupid weather is making it very difficult to go anywhere. Love those old A frame tents. Something about the shape draws me to them. I do occasionally look at them on sale. Although my fella would have a heart attack if I bought anymore 😂😂⛺️⛺️

    Looks like a Vango Force 10 Mk 5 with extension to me. What did you say it is? A Medina?

    • @GarethZoeWildcamps
      @GarethZoeWildcamps  4 месяца назад

      If you watch the video we linked at the end we explain it in more detail but basically it's what initiated the start of the Vango Force 10 production. It's a Merdina Conquest 2 and predates the original force 10. It's quite a bit of interesting history (we think so anyway)

    The pair of you look like you've been Tango'd. You're probably too young to remember the adverts lol.
    I can't say I've ever smelled a damp duck but at least the sleeping bags did the job. How did your Mrs get on with it coz she runs colder than you?

    The thing with the bottle cap was introduced because someone in America opened a bottle that had been dropped and lost an eye when the cap shot off so to avoid being sued again this is what happened

      After researching we don't believe your statement to be correct. It's to do with single use plastics regulations that came into effect in 2024.
