Last weekends 4 night camping trip (WARNING CONTAINS LT'S)

Post by jed the spread »

Just for Russel :lol: , we had a brilliant weekends wild camping for four nights and felt the benifits of spending time with the WAGS & Kids rather than thrashing the shizer out of the vans for a change. We headed off to some places we had logged on previous trips as we planned to return with the families one day and this last weekend seemed as gooder time as any. Thought i would share the good times with you nice folk....

Another classic 'Jed' video. Russell's LT looks cool but it does not look nimble. I think nimble is good.

Thats because its built for a long Africa trip and not a once a year weekend trip to Germany :lol: We met up in a carpark first and the LT was bigger than the public toilet block :shock:

Yeh, we found a great future sleepy spot near the old church by the lake. Looks like it belongs to one of those religious retreat places where old people go to have a word with themselves :lol: You can just see the van in the trees,

Great video there, the epitome of what family camping should be like.

Unfortunately the wife saw a Westfalia Florida at Stanford Hall so she has been rabbiting on about LT's since(the shower did it). I've told her only an LT 4x4 will suffice so hopefully the rarity and cost will keep her off my back for a while :mrgreen:
