Home Comfort
It is somewhat strange being home. Sleeping in a warm bed with a comfy mattress rather than on the hard ground. Having a shower available whenever it is wanted. Putting food in the oven rather than handing over meal vouchers. Real coffee. Alcohol. And what is even stranger is that I am not sure I really missed any of them that much. Yes, lying in a tent wondering if the wind is about to rip it from the ground isn't great. Hearing rain pattering on the canvas and thinking that the shift is going to be a wet one isn't wonderful. But, as a way of life, it isn't bad. There is a lot to be said for the simplicity of a tent.

there is something wonderful about simplicity... I was quite taken, even as a non camper, with the teepee, or is it tipi? that was there... if I could conquer the hayfever then there is something about sleeping outside that is at one with nature, and campers together feel some kind of connection I think
