For years I would proclaim that I never had a bad nights sleep in my swag…. until a learned mate pointed out that I only sleep in my swag when I’m pissed. Well damn!!
End quote.


Who's admitting to this one?

In years gone by when single, Yep but never owned a swag, But made for some miserable cold and wet morning afters, crawling out from under an old Hoochie in a half flooded camp site, To start all over again  ..
Usual working weeks  I average  4-1/2  hours sleep a day at best, As we camp alone most times and a lot of the time now, its in the fart sack about an hour after dark  for the family and awake with the dawn, If theres no reason to stay up, so probably a good 9 hours on average .. So yep I and we do sleep a lot better when out camping .. ;D ;D

By the sounds of it we had better not have Jeepers and Edz in the same campground as otherwise nobody will get any sleep at all.

Yeah mate I'm the same. For me it's subconsciously keeping an ear out for new sounds etc. I could sleep through a cyclone if it was an every night occurrence but if a new moth has a leak in the general vicinity then I'm awake. Unless of course I have a few of Grandpa's Coff syrups first!!  :cheers:

Can't go to sleep at home until I've checked that the house is locked.

Sleep will happen while camping with a 1mm bit of fabric and a zipper saving me from the big bad world outside. Wonder why that is...

Always sleep better camping. Struggle to fall asleep at home but at camping zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz. Ok maybe sometimes the consumption of scotch may play a part but it doesn't work at home. I also find a wake up later.
