camping!

Back from a bloomin' brilliant weekend in the Gower with Paul. We went to a huge public campsite in port eynon which overlooked the sea, excellent view and a quiet spot possibly the furthest you could get away from the toilets (and therefore the screaming kids...). Didn't do much for my bladder though - holding it all in until the last mintue!

Paul and I seem to be compatible on the views on camping - which is a refreshing change. he even managed to carry out karen's role of getting up and making me a cuppa and bacon sandwich in the morning. Sorry karen, you're surplus to requirements now! Having pitched the tent we downed a bottle of wine, then started on another as the first seemed to ahve gone down too well without any impact - unfortunately we hadn't tried to stand up by this point adn the econd bottle certainly had it's effect when we tried to stand up to go to bed....
We went on a walk to Rhossili on the Sat - the weather was warm but cloudy so I made my usual mistake of no suncream - and now have a seriously burnt face and have taken 2 days to get over the heat exhaustion! Chilled out sat evening then went to the beach on the sunday. really relaxing and a good start to a week off!

now just packing manically before heading off for a ridiculously long drive to sagga camp...... :-( will be worth it when i get there....
