      Don't miss his cooking, copy his recipes from what you remember and write them down in a book to pass on to the next generation. My mobility is nackered at the moment because I need to have a leg amputated but surgeons aren't quite ready yet, but I decided last summer that I was going to do exactly that before things went bad. Once I can get around again I'm going to carry on doing it because I was having fun making up and experimenting on recipes with my daughter and one day maybe the book will go off to any potential grandkids to carry on. I reckon your husband would agree that you should have fun with it because it sounds like something he would like.

    Nice one mate. I've done similar down here in Australia, for both hot and cold camping. But using wool. I basically made up a liner to my tent, bigger than that though.. in the heat, you want plenty of room inside, so it cuts the radiant heat of the sun, but still enough air flow so body heat doesn't build up. It amazed me what a difference it made. 35 degrees outside, and a noticeable drop inside, like being under a shady tree. In the cold, less room inside, pitching the tent lower like your setup, and closing up the openings.
    I picked up the idea from a mediaeval reenactment camp. Some of those guys were using wool.
    I reckon I'll give feather down doonas a go next..
    Nice idea with the nachos too. I'll give that a go too.

    I finally found a guy doing stuff the way it is meant to be done. All in the name of a good time. Try something new try something fun if it doesn’t work it doesn’t work no big deal even like the way he cooks if you like everything separate then you throw everything in a pot it all taste even better if you cook it together. I’d love a man who thinks outside the box. I saw that big orange box and I thought oh my God he’s going to sleep in a coffin. But after watching the whole video I might be willing to give it a try just so I can say I did it. He’s not a purist but he’s a good human being to have around. I would go camping with him anytime. Thanks for taking the time and sharing with the rest of us that don’t get to go do it quite as often as you. Respect from an old man in the USA, you are appreciated

    I have the Decathlon Air Bed base's and you have to put a lot more pressure in them using a high pressure hand pump. I believe about 6psi. They are basically made of the same material as you get with Air Tents. I use them for camping with the family and they are so comfortable when inflated properly.

    I need a Dutch oven.. I remember at the cub scout camp we went to with all the families in one big camp out, and it was always the same thing every year. We went down a line and filled a foil sheet with ground beef, frozen potatoes and frozen veggie mix, seasoned it, wrapped it and cooked it on the coals. And then for dessert, this one dad/scoutmaster in the troop would get his enormous Dutch oven and make this amazing apple cake recipe, nestled it in the coals and covered it and then when it was done everyone got a piece. It was so good.
    And then the morning when we were leaving, someone would provide a buttload of store-bought pastries like donuts, croissants, Danishes, like a _mountain_ of boxed pastries, so no one had to make any breakfast and we could focus on packing up. I would eat so many danishes and no one would tell us to stop, even our parents because it was just so many pastries they usually had to send some home with people.
