When it comes to camping, I wish [making|made|to make|to making] something clear. I'm not a fan! I've only been camping once, and it was a horrific experience. I'd rather [don't go|won't go|haven't gone|didn't go] at all. Last summer my friends insisted that I go with them, I was reluctant at first but I ended up going. I wish I [would follow|did follow|followed|had followed] my instincts! Our first mistake was to set off without listening to the weather forecast. Well, two days later it started to rain so heavily that our tent somehow flooded! We had taken so many things with us that it took hours to pack up and leave. It was as if we [would take|had taken|would have taken|took] half of Selfridges with us! It was awful, and on top of that, I caught a cold. If only I had known better! Camping is not for me. I prefer [stayed|stay|staying|will stay] in a cosy hotel room and relaxing rather than pitching a tent in the middle of nowhere!
