Camping!

Camping

It’s damp and cold outside.
It’s damp and cold in here too.
We’re in the pop up tent.
We’re camping for a week or two!

We’re not far from the sea,
in a field with a slope!
I’ve never been camping before.
I don’t know how I’ll cope!

I now realise I live in luxury at home.
Here there’s no electric, WiFi or flushing loo.
Stuff you normally take for granted.
What is a girl to do?

It’s a two man tent with a low roof.
There’s not much room at all!
You couldn’t swing a cat!
It’s a good job I’m not very tall.

Making tea is not easy!
The cooker is just a gas ring!
When the wind blows the flame out,
you can’t heat a blumin’ thing!

The bed isn’t a bed like at home!
It’s a thin roll of foam on the floor!
Once you get down there,
your heads at one end, your toes stick out the door!

Okay, so when I unzip the door there’s a view,
but I’ll tell you now,
next year if you suggest camping,
THERE WILL ONLY BE YOU!
