Dear philsleash,
We had a great time at Jindy and will be happy to recap our stories prid pro qou of your camping wonders down south.
I was contemplating camping. Would you recommend it as a family bonding holiday.
Well Al Contemplate no more. I would thoroughly reccomend camping to you. However if you speak to my husband he may have a different reccomendation. I think Phils reccomendation would invole a toaster, a wardrobe, a toilet in close proximity, dinner he did not have to be part of preparing, accomadation not affected by severe winds, a place where children can not be stung by bees and thus rushed to hospital by ambulance, preferably a lounge and a T.V as opposed to a camping chair and pictionary and most importantly a bed which didnt need to be pumped up again every morning. As I am sure all of the above were available on the Jindy trip I am sure he would probably suggest you stcik with the cycling boys and not risk a camping trip for "family bonding"as you put it.
Next year there may be one more cyclist on this trip.
