I was camping in the Lake district and my brother turned up with one of those big family tents.
I went along to help them put it up and walked into a bit of a dispute. He had set up the groundsheet, all nicely tucked up inside the tent, but she insisted that the edges had to go outside. When he (and I) pointed out that the rain would run off the outer and get inside on top of the groundsheet, she called us idiots.
When we pointed out that we had been camping in all weathers for donkeys years, she wouldnt listen.
Needless to say she got flooded out then berated her hubby for listening to her.
