The answers to today's Strands, game #432, are BACKPACK TENT GRILL COOLER LANTERN THERMOS SPANGRAM: CAMPING GEAR My rating: Easy My score: 1 hint

Am I overthinking this or is todays spangram in the shape of a TENT?

Camping is something that I have a love-hate relationship with. I have always liked the idea of it, communing with nature, bonhomie around the campfire, stripping life back to its essentials.

However, Ive always found the reality uncomfortable and cold. This is no
doubt down to my lack of organizational skills, hardyness and equipment and man do you need a lot of equipment, and not just a GRILL, a THERMOS and a LANTERN.

When I was younger it gave me independence and freedom to misbehave. Now that I'm older and less resilient, I prefer concrete and the great indoors.
