| Safe, Successful Camping Tips |
- Always arrive at your first campsite before 4 pm, so that you can calmly make camp and enjoy the experience.
- Always check your gas appliances at every fitting with soapy water before lighting. Only fools use a match to find leaks.
|
- Always assemble and trial your equipment at home so that you are familiar with its correct assembly and operation.
- If you are unsure of the operation of any appliance, consult our camping store for expert advice.
