After years of badgering I finally managed to presude my wife to come camping with me - we had no kids at the time but she is more of a Hilton girl than a Coleman one.
Decided Lennox Head would be a great spot for the weekend so packed the car with the essentials plus the 2 man dome tent and set off.
Arrived into Lennox head in the dark in a howling gale where we set about putting up the tent. May as well have been a 15 man tent for all the hassle it was to get the damned thing to go up as the wind was fericious. Anyway, tent up eventually, it was into town to find something still open for food and beer. One pub meal later and a few sharpners, we stepped out of the pub only to find that the wind had completely and I mean completely gone.
Arrive back at camp with not a breath of wind in sight and the tent looking like.........well, like it was put up in a gale
Surprisingly, my wife will still come camping with me although only after some serious consultation and discussion many weeks out from any trip

LOL!! My wife Jenny works in the camping trade as an assistant store manager. She comes home with stories every night about people bringing goods back because they "don't work". Of course, what they "meant" to say was "we couldn't get it to work" and were severely embarrassed in front of everyone else at the campsite.

People in my 4WD club talk about a Tassie trip a coupel of years ago. Their was a camp ground on top of a cliff on the East Coast ( can't remember the exact location ). One couple set up their big dome tent. They had some of their gear inside and next minute a big gust of wind came along and blew the whole lot over the cliff into the sea. They had to go down to thel ocal dispaosals and re-kit.
