What are "camping pillows"?!!!
Are they just regular pillows that you plan to use when going camping?

Ohhh, a reply!

They are tiny little pillows that fold into their own compression sac and cut down on the space neede.....so more room for mummy to bring back wine!

4 camping pillows and a travel towel (ultra absorbant and quick drying) came to less space than a single normal pillow.

And they were all different colours!

God, I'm so sad!

I know, I know

But you see in my world of ever spreading arse, camping stuff is the only stuff that I buy that keeps geting smaller

I think we need a link

I'm just envious really - we were hoping to do a couple of days this week, but it's not going to happen unfortunately.

oh i need to get me one of those!
i'm sick of folding up a fleece and pretending it's a pillow...a girl needs a bit of comfort doesn't she?

Oh they do look good - are they narrower than normal pillows - and can you just bung them in the machine (ie. no pillow cases)? The beds in the camper are quite narrow and we could do with non-overlappy pillows...

they are about 20 inches by 5 unfolded. They back down into their own sewn in pocket to 10 by 5. They advise that you use a pillow case to 'extend wear' but tbh at 4.65 or so, they are not that expensive. They are macine washable on 30 degrees. You have to make sure they are totaly dry before you pack them up.

4 of them take up less space that one ordinary pillow
