There is a very specific kind of heartbreak reserved for the person who packs a 25-litre cool box to the brim with ice, beer and potato salad, then discovers thirty seconds into the car park that it now weighs roughly the same as a sleeping labrador.

There’s a very specific kind of heartbreak that only picnic parents know: you’ve packed the sandwiches, wrangled three kids and a windbreak into the car, found the perfect spot under a tree, and then you unzip the bag to discover the butter has turned to soup and the orange squash is basically bathwater. A large … Read more
There’s a very specific kind of heartbreak reserved for British summers: you unzip the bag, reach for what should be an ice-cold can, and find something closer to bathwater.

There’s a particular kind of frustration that only campers know.
