Well, after a couple of years of umming and ahhing, should I keep tenting it, get a caravan, will I need to upgrade to a 4WD, etc etc, I've finally gone out and bought a 4 year old Camel Nomad camper trailer. Looks like a really
well cared for camper that has been
well used but not abused. It's an on road 13 foot tent with fully enclosed annex, 15oz canvas roof and 12oz canvas walls. Picking it up on the weekend.
In the end, the touring tent while fantastic for, uhh, touring, was a bit lacking in the space department for longer stays we now do now that we're a family of 4. Last straw for my wife was getting eaten by insects while having breakfast on the last camping trip - hence the fully enclosed annex on the camper. The best thing is how affordable they are second hand for a good quality camper (it's an absolute buyers market out there), and I get to tow it with just a standard car.
Wife is happy. Now I just need to figure out how to bring the sofa camping with me and she'll have nothing to complain about! :D
