Having never been camping but being from the country and working outdoors have met these needs by carrying a few disposable bags loo roll and finding a large tree!! I imagine a torch would be useful.

Sorry I can't help ya here guys . Camped all my life tents , sleeping bags on the ground back of a truck etc. but now our camping is done in a travel trailer with a loo . Haha . John I can't believe you have never camped Lad I like you have used the bushes trees etc. There is nothing like sitting around a campfire at night and the smell of bacon cooking outside in the pine trees .

Hi Robert, Travel Trailer! yer goin soft on me big fella lol. Nope never been may be cause it rains so much in this country!! but am going to give it a go some day. the nearest I got was years ago a few mates went to a concert and we slept in the back of the Pick up Truck! And guess what!! IT RAINED!!

Hey John . I understand with all the rain you get over there it would make it a little tuff  for camping Haha . We don't get much rain around here although I do enjoy it when it does . Did get to see the first snow of the season around here this past weekend . Spent the weekend in Big Bear (its up in the mountains) took my wife up for her Birthday weekend and got to see a little snow . Stayed in a cabin but still it was cold for this desert rat 23 degrees when we left yesterday . Burrrrrr !

Happy Birthday Mrs Robert xox... That sounds class!! 23 degrees if we get that in the summer its on the News and its called a heat wave! We have had a little snow but its been tricky with black ice. Also you say Travel Trailer we say Caravan

It's not the same,  but when my wife and I were returning Saturday night from our family get together  ( over 125) ,I had to use the urban equivalent and emptied my bag in a trash can. My wife was embarrassed but I was relieved. I carried some t/p with me,  JICOE  (Just in case of emergency ).

Urban adventure .

Urban Warrior!!!! Way to Go Zvitusk !! I think my wife is going to bust a gut laughing!!!

Hey Z whatever it takes right ????? Haha . I actually carry a bucket with a lid and trash bags with us when we go on a long trip in the car . JICOE !

John Lad 23 is a heat wave wow I would never make it there I would freeze . In the summer here our heat wave can consist of 123 degrees + or - . A caravan here can be a group of cars or trucks traveling together . But you are correct with the definition guess its another one of the Irish terms for me to learn . Lol

23 degrees??  That would be a mild heat wave over here in Ct.  In a cold snap-then 50's this weekend..  go figure????  Glad you and your wife had a nice time.. Great to get away!! How did Norman do??????? 

I always carry vomit bags with me when I am out in the woods for Nellie.. :-) 

Glad you see the humor 

Hey Marcie I don't know how all you people can live in that cold weather  . Lol .  53 years in the desert for me I can take the heat but I cant take the cold for to long . Haha . Was a normal weekend for Norman he did good no problems at all . The barf bags sound like a good idea . 

, the barf bags, are slim, and I also carry one of those bags that we get in the box of pouches, along with napkins.. Napkins hold better.. :-)  

Ya the cold weather?  This year, was so warm and then bam! Got hit with the cold.. Snowing every day to keep things white.. So that is pretty- It can be a long cold winter at times.. As of the arrival of Nellie, we just take much to the hot weather, or the cold much anymore-mostly the heat.. I don't down hill ski, or ice skate anymore.. So it is reading weather.. Which is a nice break.. 

I also have a decent looking bag which contains:

I large plastic with lid of ricottia cheese, Napkins, a dentist bib,  gloves, plastic bags, I have one in each car. never can tell if I get stuck in a snow storm, traffic-because of one, and I am not in charge of those.. Neater.. and I just hang it behind the head rest of the drivers seat. Coffee cans are good too!! But a bit bulky for this..........
