1. intant barbie, food, just normal pillows and duvets will do, torch and TOILET ROLL
2. Just make sure you have the important things. Like Bug spray, toilet paper, feminie products (just in case) lighter and wood. You don't have to over pack, just think about what situations can a rise and what you will need to stanilize that situation.
3. Take emergency supplies.Like most dumb people that think they can go camping with a tent and cell phones are the ones that get lost.When they go on a hike.
4. If your tent has a built in ground sheet fine. You might consider sleeping bags, but if these are not affordable then it's a couple of blankets. Take spare dry socks. Wet feet are often a problem, esp. here in UK with our present weather. One night is okay, you'll survive with the minimum. Hope the rain stays off. Have fun.
5. Camping can be fun, as long as you have the right stuff! Remember to bring a sleeping bag or blanket and your pillow. Bug spray, toilet paper and believe it or not baby wipes are great add ons. Baby wipes can clean up just about everything, including dirty hands. Always bring water! And definately bring flashlights and back up batteries! It's spooky to have to walk to use the bathroom, (or woods) without light! Packing a small cooler is usually a good idea too, with anything that you might like to drink, cook, etc. Don't pack too much though....rule of thumb - if you can't carry it all at once, don't bring it! Don't forget the smores for the campfire!!! Have fun!
6. print this out and take it to the shops a tent, 2 sleeping bags, old stock at halfords are only £10 each, a torch.. you might need a wee in the mid of night, beers, and other drinks of your choise, and the last item is free,,,,,,,,A F***ING GOOD NIGHT, sounds like a right laugth. take some pics and blast em on your 360 page.
7. Miniumum huh? Take blankets, lot of them, some disposable wipes like for babies, several gallons of water in jugs, they are cheap, bring your own cups and utensils, ice chest full of ice, with drinks in it, other food in a box and keep it out of the sun, enough food for everyone, a big trash bag, firewood, shovel, bucket to put the wood in a then water to put the fire out, alcohol if you're old enough, don't forget to bring whatever you need as far as medicine's go or personal supplies. Find out what the weather is goin to be like and have the right clothes and shoes too. A mapof the are is often useful. Happy Birthday!
8. You can buy those instant BBQ trays in supermarkets and the such. They've got all the fuel etc in a tin foil container. All you have to do is light it and plonk the food on it. Get one for the morning to cook your breakfast on too. Pillows you don't need, use your clothes rolled up for that. Duvets are fine but they tend to be bulky, sleeping bags are better if you can borrow a couple. Don't forget the matches, tin opener, paper plates, cups and plastic cutlery but do take one ordinary sharp knife. You may want to take a small frying pan or a saucepan to boil water in. A large plastic sheet if you can get one, for sitting on outside and for emergencies. And the way the weather is at the moment, an inflatable dinghy, just in case.
9. Get: Instant BBQ Food(obviously) Sleeping bags Plates, forks, etc And that is pretty much all you need for one night, assuming that you will have a wash before and after.
