Be interesting to see the quality of the swags, I havehad one of those butane driven hot plates for years, very excellent. Its a double swag looking at the link and looks ok

I want the swag all for my self :D

Mrs Mc wants the bed that sits up off the floor but I cant stand those air mattreses and I dont see the frame holding us as our frames are not the smallest around :angel:

I have a single version of the folding bed and they are incredibly strong (suprised me), I weigh 107Kgs and have never had a problem, though I hate the air bed, it is as noisy as hell. It's like sleeping on a ballon, squeaks and sqwarks everytime you move, I have solved the problem by using the mattress out of my swag in place of the air mattress, very comfortable, the bed has the advantage that you are up off the ground, much easier to get into and out of, especially if you're an old fart like me, Regards Frank

We have one of those double self-inflating mattresses & I have to say it is THE most comfortable thing I've ever slept on whilst camping. It is a bit bulky so we store it in a water proof rooftop canvas bag with all the other bedding (all the bulky stuff).

Cool thanks, it starts thursday so I think I may buy one anyway and try it out, if I dont like it it will just be something else in the shed we no longer use :p

I agree 100%,couldnt believe how good they are.:)I got a cheapy from anaconda,and have never slept so well camping.They are a bit bulky,but now the kids have grown up & do there own thing there is always heaps of room in the car.

For the last couple of long trips i also removed all the seats (except the front two),which not only increases room,but also reduces weight:)
