Camping in an 88"

Just did 900 miles round Wales with the girlfreind, camping. Me and my dad put a sheet over the tub in the back, wide enough to end just before the bench seat (not enough room to sit on it mind), that came from the back door to the front seats, then another peice that ends at the dash with a notch cut out for the steering wheel.

Made in haste, we found that with hinging the two peices together, the roof wasnt high enough to allow the two to fold, so we used Pin type hinges to hold them, with hinged legs that fit in the footwell.

Nice and large, comfortable (Except the condensation), and a few sarong curtains to finish, held up with clothes pegs. Despite being soaked all week due to the crap Welsh weather, we slept well, and stayed dry when on the bed. Nice, cheap easy holiday.



The one nice day we had was our last day!

I'm amazed you found a woman who will camp. Especially in a Land Rover! No electrics I hope?

Nope, except a redundant indicator unit with an extended wire on it that plugs into the neg pos on the dash!

Ahhh proper camping! The best kind. Camp fires too. Shame a lot of places don't let you anymore.

one place wouldnt let the vehicle in, deemed it unsafe for a car to have a homemade bed in it. I felt like telling her that its a damned site safer than a tinny fibreglass box caravan, and she allows them!
