So last week we braved the floods and downpour and decided that the bad weather wouldn't stop us from doing some sort of camping this year. As it's been such awful weather we opted not to sleep under canvas but instead stayed in an eco off-grid camping pod in Bude, Cornwall. I lived in Cornwall for a year a few years ago so it was nice to be back and we the new addition to the family. It was also nice to have time away from technology with there being no wifi and I didn't even take the laptop as I didn't want the temptation of being able to watch a DVD but instead savour the moments with John and Mr A, reading books and having good conversations. The pod was still pretty basic in the way it had no form of heating, no electric and the toilets were outside. But it did have a bed with memory foam (need to have this at home!) and an amazing outside gas bbq but because of the weather we didn't have much chance of using it except bravin......
