Re: Driving on holiday - do you overpack and take everything but the kitchen sink?

I debated about owning up to this but as you've mentioned it first, I will

As a scout leader for over 20 years, I have done more than my fair share of camping - in tents, little ones - and as I came of my house carrying my duvet and pillows, my husband would stand there shaking his head (looking much the same as Usain Bolt at 3 seconds in http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ug2ZWcCyaUo ) - camping is only as uncomfortable as you make it

And get stung for what they charge you when you're away!

That's true about higher prices. I bought a small loaf of bread in the site's supermarket on the way home, as I knew I didn't want to do a full shop til the next day (Sat). It cost £1.09!!! A similar size in Morrison's would have been half that. Did make nice toast, though.
