The Pickle goes camping

Ev aquired a tent (I think you and I spent more than a few occasions in the 121 garden in tents over the years).  Ev's is a pretty amazing thing - gone are the days of bitter fighting about how the poles go together and what sequence of assembly leads to a well pitched tent - his is somehow spring-loaded and pops itself up - needing only four pegs and two guides to sort it all out.  

Ange kindly dropped them off at the stables, behind which is a flat field where it seems quite a few people had a similar idea - really nice to see.  Aiden had in fact been to the same place the night before with his mates - a big middle finger to photos of that :-).  I had a stern talking to Ev about fire risk (a lesson I learned vicariously through Geordie, and the inappropriately named Alistair Smart).  I was pleased to see that they'd gone to the trouble of organising themselves properly in the photo below.  This did not stop the police from arriving at some point in the evening and taking their names... not sure what that means ... certainly he doesn't seem bothered by it.

It's a cool spot for kids to go camping - perhaps for fires one needs to go to a beach?

A photo off one of Ev's mates phones - in case one wonders what time it is.  Ev in his new tent.

The day before, checking out his new interior.  Pretty cool.
