         7 . The camping mattress of  claim 2 , wherein the mechanism comprises a support member for supporting the upper section in one or more inclined positions. 
     
     
         8 . The camping mattress of  claim 7 , wherein the support member is arranged to be reversibly fixed in one or more different positions relative to the upper section such that the upper section is reversibly fixed in one or more inclined positions relative to the lower section. 
     
     
         9 . The camping mattress of  claim 1 , wherein the upper section comprises a backboard attached to an underside of the upper section. 
     
     
         10 . The camping mattress of  claim 9 , wherein the backboard extends across the substantial majority of the underside or rear side of the upper section. 
     
     
         11 . The camping mattress of  claim 1 , wherein the upper section comprises one or more handles for rotating and inclining the upper section relative to the lower section. 
     
     
         12 . The camping mattress of  claim 11 , wherein the one or more handles comprise loops of material. 
     
     
         13 . The camping mattress of  claim 11 , wherein the one or more handles comprise a cavity handle located in the underside or rear side of the upper section and backboard, if present. 
     
     
         14 . The camping mattress of  claim 1 , wherein the upper section and the lower section are integrally formed. 
     
     
         15 . The camping mattress of  claim 1 , wherein the camping mattress comprises a thinner or weakened section between the upper section and the lower section. 
     
     
         16 . The camping mattress of  claim 1 , wherein the upper section is equal to in size or smaller than the lower section. 
     
     
         17 . The camping mattress of  claim 1 , wherein the size of the upper section is greater than one-tenth of the camping mattress. 
     
     
         18 . The camping mattress of  claim 1 , the upper section can be rotated about a rotational axis (R) relative to the lower section by an angle in a range of 0 to 90 degrees. 
     
     
         19 . The camping mattress of  claim 1 , the upper section can be reversibly fixed at one or more inclined positions wherein the angle between the upper section and the lower section is between 15 and 75 degrees. 
     
     
         20 . The camping mattress of  claim 1 , wherein the camping mattress comprises foam. 
     
     
         21 . A kit of parts, said kit comprising:
 a roof tent; and   a camping mattress comprising:
 a upper section for supporting an upper portion of a user, and 
 a lower section for supporting a lower portion of the user, 
 wherein the upper section is rotatable about an axis such that, in use, the upper section can be rotated and reversibly fixed at one or more inclined positions relative to the lower section. 
   
     
     
         22 . A roof tent, said roof tent comprising a camping mattress comprising:
 a upper section for supporting an upper portion of a user, and   a lower section for supporting a lower portion of the user,   wherein the upper section is rotatable about an axis such that, in use, the upper section can be rotated and reversibly fixed at one or more inclined positions relative to the lower section.
