Get drunk with a few beers, enjoy the nights sky and cuddle together for warmth, naked, with your penis inside of her.

no sky required.

But please remember to respect those around you. Tent's don't contain sound.. at all. So turn your TV off when it goes dark (or use headphones).

Please could you explain the difference between having a TV on just loud enough so you can hear it and a full-blown conversation with beer involved where every other word is **** ****Conversations between drunken parties get louder and louder and louder until finally they **** the whole field off never mind just the people next door.

Back to the subject; portable sky dish/stand ordered so you crazy anti-tent-entertainment folks can blow another fuse or two now.

The following steps may help you:

1 Locate your knickers
2 Pull down gently but firmly
3 Untwist

I think you should speak to someone. A professional, I mean.


e : wait, if you get SKY you might be able to pick up some anime so I guess it's not all bad.

I second the idea of sleeping bags in your front room. You could bring an electric heater as a camp fire and some pot plants for that natural vibe.

Ahhhh yeaaah.

On a serious note, if you need a hand, I'd be willing to help you run some cable from the nearest box to your tent. We could think about solar panels and keyless entry to the tent as well. Maybe even build the tent of bricks!

But this is GD. You have 400+ posts so surely you knew what to expect. Getting all stressy just fans the campfire (or the electically powered log effect fire that you probably take with you) :D

To be fair I wasn't expecting more than two replies as I didn't think there would be a big 'outdoors' following on here. On the other hand I thought plenty of people would know about the sky set up question with it being techy stuff.

I'm far from stressy, I'm sat ordering bits and pieces for my next holiday in a week. Infact the only stress right now is deciding south Wales or south UK.

On reflection I feel this thread has been quite useful for some; it has given the opportunity to increase ones post count and thus achieving ones daily targets.

There isn't a difference: Neither should happen.

Nor should you rev your engine at night or blow whistles or sing or shout at people or bang drums. Wow it's fun listing things that could be as annoying to other campers as having a TV on after dark isn't it?

Anyway, your campsite will have a blanket "no noise after 10pm" (or similar) rule. I was just trying to gently remind you that includes TVs. No need to get your knickers in a twist.

You were given really good advice early on but acted like a whiny toddler to the stuff you didn't appreciate. Post count and targets are ... well, are they even a thing these days? I don't think anyone cares, certainly not here.

Stop whining, take the advice and have a good holiday with your hair straighteners and SKY.

We do actually already have a electric heater......and a kettle.....and phone chargers........and coolbox (that plugs in!!).......and loads of other little things with plugs on the end. I shall be having a word with our local camping shop though - they sold me a camping kettle and now I know there is ban on electric while camping I shall let this be known.

You lot are funny. Bless u.

On a more serious note; you guys have something great to look forward to soon. A new range of computer hardware is coming out that will do everything your current hardware will do only a tiny bit faster at the cost of a couple hundred quid but it will revolutionise your lives in a way you could never imagine.
 
have you got a trailer so you can take the sofa and coffee table? Have you considered mounting the 50" LED on the side of the tent so you dont need to take a tv stand?
 
The other big issue with all this Sky equipment in a tent is every time you want to do something...

"Ready for our walk?"

"No, I've just got to pack the TV, Sky Box, Satellite, Power and Cables back into the car".


5 hours later, back from walk....

"I want to watch X-Factor..."

"Errr, hang on, I need to unpack all the equipment and set it up again."


40 minutes later...

'What's taking so long?"

"I can't get the satellite realigned again!"

"I'm MISSING X-FACTOR!!!!!"

Thanks for the reminder. Good job you did - learning to read was so over-rated. I don't tend to wear knickers if I'm coming on here - they only get in the way of you lot dry ******* me while you dictate and preach the rights and wrongs of this world.
