Going on a week long camping trip the Missus to Wales last week in July.

Anyone got a luggage rack I can borrow/loan/rent for a week or so? Extra space would be useful.

I'm in Leeds, but I'm willing to drive to meet you. I'll be driving back from WIM in Bucks tomorrow afternoon also.

Naturally I'll pay you a deposit or 'rent' it if needs be.

Tell the missus to pack light and get it all in the boot. I've had a few weeks away with my missus and every time we've managed to get everything in the boot. Leave the spare wheel at home and you'll find you actually have plenty of space.

Theres usually a few on ebay, might be worth buying one, then flogging it when you get back. Might not end up costing a thing then.....

We've managed before, but we're camping for a week this time, so it will be nice to take a bit of extra kit.

Another plus, is that as I don't live with her, and will be picking her up at the start of the trip - she can simply pack a case, and just strap it on when I arrive, rather than packing/unpacking/repacking etc...

A chap on the Yorkshire forum may have come up trumps anyway so I'm gonna see how much he wants.

Fair enough. When I go camping I usually fill the boot just with my camping equipment smile
