Can you use passenger car tires on a camping trailer?

Yes, if you pay attention to these things: 1) match weight rating and speed rating 2) size for the type of use (best not use a 8" wheel to pull 3000 pounds at freeway use for wearability reason) 3) run them at max pressure rating to keep them cool from the sidewalls "bouncing" effect. This is due to worse shock absorption oon trailers. There is no other "secret" ingredient in trailer tires. Load and speed is only the issue when selecting tires for trailers. All other requirements for trailer use are lower than on car tires.

If you throw water on your bonfire is it safe to go to sleep with the fire still smoldering?

NO! .... Specially depends on where you live. I live in Florida where "Burn-Bans" are common. I once had my kids (17 , 18) start then put the fire out for the evening, only they left it smoldering. The next day when i had gotten up the woods behind our house were on fire. So no always make sure the fire is completely out. Try sand it works better.

I found a great campground a few years back called North Country Campground (http://www.baldwincampground.com). They are setup for any camping experience as they have electric available and fully furnished campers for rent.

Can a 120V generator run a camper's air conditioner?

Well all generators with a few exceptions produce 120 volts. What will determine if a generator will run your air conditioner is the number of watts the generator will put out. You need to learn the wattage needed by the air conditioner and also learn the max watts put out by the generator you have (Assuming you have one already) it the generator produces more watts that needed by the AC unit you are good to go. Not on the other hand if the generator you have dose not produce enough watts or you do not have one then it is a matter of buying a generator with the wattage required by the AC unit in your camper. Now if you are going to buy one I would also determine what else you would like to run from the generator (in addition to the air conditioner. Figure out the watts need by these items add them together with the watts needed by the AC unit. Then buy a generator big enough for your needs.

Where is the best place to go camping in Scotland?

Loch Lubnaig

I recommend the shores of Loch Lubnaig in the Trossachs, which is just a few miles north of the town of Callander. We camped there a few weeks ago and it was perfect.

The second car park, driving north, is the best spot. Although it's not exactly wild camping, as the shore is a short walk from the car park, it's not an official campsite so you can build fires. And the water's lovely for a swim. Get there early though because it's popular in the summer.

Also Barra in the western isles
