The second night I slept pretty well. Poor old Phil wasn't very used to it though... but we both enjoyed it in the end, even if camping wouldn't have been our first choice!

I went on loads of family camping holidays and always thoroughly enjoyed them. You learn how to deal with the cold, you learn to ignore the uneven ground you're trying to sleep on, you learn to wake up with the sunrise and sleep with nightfall. Still, you survived, so it can't be all bad! And as for Stiggy, I'm almost certain it was a publicity stunt - from the short clip I saw today of the unveiling, Stig's body language was quite different to normal, so I wouldn't be at all surprised if it all turned out to be false.
