Same kind of investment here, but different brand and price and site to buy from - headphones from 3M, $40, bought off Amazon.
Also need to buy a new air mattress this weekend. |

I bought some AAA batteries from the Pound Shop for my radio today.
I don't think I need anything else new, but that's not to say I won't be tempted.... I was in Costco last night and they had a fancy 2-inch thick camping sleeping pad that looked way more comfortable than the thin one I currently use, but at £40 I felt that's a bit steep for one week's use per year. |

Air-con in the car has had a regas because it's going to be a scorcher, and new batteries for radio ear defenders, but that's all for me this year.

New much smaller air mattress. Not an investment for LM itself, but much easier to bring a long. I think that will be the only thing new for me this year.

my radio headphones turned up and they seem much better quality than the old ones, plus digital tuning not sure i will take them to spa as no radio broadcast.

I forgot. I do have a new hat. I'm just going to cut the front hedge in it, to 'break it in'. Still have the old tatty one as well.

I have taken the plunge and bought an inflatable tent. Takes about 5 minutes to pitch, excluding guy ropes.
I'm doing a week in Scotland in July which is going to involved pitching it every day so this reduced pitstop time should be useful. ![]() |

I assume these inflatable tents also fold down to a small package for transport? Or does the size of the pump exceed the size of the poles on a similar sized tent?

Folds to roughly the same size as a normal tent. The poles of a normal tent don't take up much space, after all.
