Camp cooking

27 August 2013 / Camping, Travel / Scotland, tea

I had planned a cashew nut noodle curry for tea tonight – then a Fish and Chip Van turned up at the campsite.

So I had very good haddock and chips, sitting in the back of my car, watching a movie on my iPad.

Camping

What a difference a week makes – see here.

Diana and i have been working today on the Branston Business Network stand at the Big Tea Party in Branston. Once we had packed up I got Diana to drop me a few miles away from the Woodhall Spa campsite so I could walk in the last bit and camp out over night. After last weekend it seemed a pity to waste a good weekend and not go backpacking.

More walking photos

I found what I thought was a good place for a tea break (above) and I had almost finished my tea when the cows, which at first I could not see, came over to see what was going on!
