Daughter wants a sleepover with her mates at weekend in a tent & I didnt want to get ours out so we borrowed Father-in-Law's Lichfield Apache 3 that he uses when off on his vintage motorbikes.
Eldest son wanted to camp out & as our new mattress arrived the other day we decided to sleep out in the garden last night.
The trusty old inflatable mattress got a bit lumpy on holiday as the embossed pattern started to wear out & odd uncomfortable bulges appeared.
We ordered a Campingaz Smart Quickbed double on Bank Holiday Monday from Attwoolls. http://www.attwoolls.co.uk/Air-Beds-Mat ... ouble.html
It is a very comfortable mattress , I like the 'secret' compartment under the pillow for valuables & the material it's made of feels better quality than similar air beds we've used that have let us down.
Our old mattress was even thicker material but as I say those lumps have brought it to the end of it's useful life.
The odd thing about back garden camping is you know your own bed is just a few metres away.....
Here's a couple of pics.





As a solo camper on the trusty bike i cannot carry an inflatable... gutted
But i guess my body used to the hard ground now!!!!
