Following on from my previous post and the brilliant advice I've been getting, I've got a few camping quandries I'd be grateful for your help with (apologies if silly, but tis all new to
me)
Cool boxes/bags.. Recommendations? What should I be looking for, for a weekend camping? Is a 'standard' cool box ok rather than a plug in type? Don't want to/can't spend alot.
Do I need ice block thingies? What kind are best? What foods are ok in a cool box and what's not?
We've got a single ring gas stove and was thinking of taking disposable bbq's. I'm doing the evening 'meal' for 2 adults and 4 kids one night, any suggestions for an easy meal and other tips on food that's good to take with us?
Finally, water - have seen a £1.99 collapsable water cannister in home bargains which I was thinking of buying - should I bother? What do you all do for your water??
Thanks:)
