    With A New Decade Just Round The Corner...

     
    ... the burning question in my mind is... what's it going to be called?
     
    We've had the Noughties... and before that the Nineties, Eighties, Seventies etc... Is it going to be called the Tenties????  That's going to make us sound like we're camping for a decade...
     
    Best use of a tent?... For me it's the following...
     
    1. On Friday afternoon, take the bed that you sleep in
    2. Remove the covers
    3. Remove the mattress
    4. Set up the tent on the base of the bed with the opening at the end where you're feet normally are
    5. Put the mattress INSIDE the tent
    6. Put the covers back over the mattress
    7. Put a TV in view of opening
    8. Get a table to stand by the opening and cover with beer, snacks, dips, chocolate etc
    9. Climb in to tent
    10. Do not get out again until Monday morning (except for toilet breaks... coffee/tea making... topping snacks up... paying for ordered take aways)
     
     
    All the fun of camping with none of the comforts of nature... HUZZAH!!!
     
     
    The only way this can be topped is if your tent has a windowy type thing in the top of it so you can open it, lie back and pretend you're looking at the stars...This will require you to paint the ceiling of your bedroom black and then flick luminous white paint at it... oooooor get one of those star projectory things from:
     
     
     
    Any other suggestions for best use of a tent gratefully received...

    Now as for the best use of a tent... I can't say, ummmm won't say, but, my first thought has me blushing and I believe that MSN would be offended! (I can still think about it though) BIG HUGS, Steph

    cooler by yourside is key for beverage and food consumption! If you want to leave it to going completely UNnature- purchase a mini fridge! LOL

    Mornin Deebeedoobee,
    Well I have seen it said that the next decade is gonna be called the 'teenies' although I get my information from the most unreliable of sources. Actually Im kinda hoping that doesnt catch on or its gonna be a decade of hormones, door slamming and stamping off to respective rooms.

    And surely anyone that did any festivals during the last decade has already lived through the tenties. I have to say massively approving of your plan, what with not being much of a fan of being wet, cold or wellies. Although to get that authentic festival feeling I would suggest you add music outside (to make you feel like you just couldnt be assed to go see that particular band) and possibley hire some drunks to ramble about making too much noise at silly times of the morning.

    Frivilous Friday Hugs Daf xx
