happy campers - part one

Lucky old us, we bagged the best of the weather before it got all greyish and rainy!

It was a lovely trip but not without it's fair share of drama, let's just say some missing poles and an exploding gas stove did not get things off to the best start. But unsinged and um, finally erect, we sallied forth and had a really good time.

Here's the campsite. Easily one of my most favourite places in the entire world.







Thanks to everyone who has noticed (and mentioned) my new layout. It's a work in progress (that's a euphemism for it's not finished yet), I'm not sure about my header, although I LOVE having big photographs. Although they take up so much room that I will have to do this post in several parts! Next up, the vintage!

but... you guys have funny tents in the uk?! here in Australia land they're all plastic dome things these days (practical, but not pretty!)! so nice to see a teepee style canvas thing!

whereabouts were you camping - we were in Purbeck this weekend. Glorious. Nice to be able to stand up straight again though.

Also - how DO you get big photos? My blog looks crap on the mac - far too much grey emptiness either side of the content. Actually, there's a fair bit of grey emptiness inside the content too...
