Practice. You don't need to be going out camping in order to do your thang...
Our tent is way too big to have a go in the garden so I might borrow the school field for a practice if the weather ever improves
We've got our furry baby since we went last time, so she adds a whole new set of complications - how to pack up to go camping when she fills the back of the car. We have a roof box, but can only put so much up there, no tow bar or trailer. I suppose we'd have to cut right back and travel extremely light :rolleyes:Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:Loves being a Wonderbra friend :kisses3:

Ooooo well next weekend is the london tri on both days - cycling is past westminster
Although bagpuss the competitors are swiming in edexcel docks I think - its not the river per se - its cleaner and less tidal thankfully, but it'll still be cold though :eek:

Yep, makes it easier to count the passing sanitary items and condoms!
...Linda xxIt's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.0 -

Obviously you need to be in a place that's discovered the magic of the sewage farm..."Follow the money!" - Deepthroat (AKA William Mark Felt Sr - Associate Director of the FBI)

I must admit I looked at this last night and was tempted.
