Didn't need the Nevada. Saw a Vango Tigris 4 DLX was such a good price that I had to get it, , even though we hadn't planned another this year. Now, where can I go to try it??

A Hilleberg Keron GT or Nammatj GT. A Nallo 3 GT would do. The problem is that the cheapest of the options is over £500! http://www.climbers-shop.com/2569/products/Hilleberg_Nallo_3_GT_Tent.aspx

tell me...... why is the third pic on this link showing how many condoms will fit in the tent!!??

Now I didn`t spot that til you said....

The only thing I want is the extension/canopy for our Nevada M. Just wish they did one in the same colour as our tent (last year's model) and not only the mocha one. Curses.

porch for the hartford xl, a toilet tent for the toilet the father in law has given us and looking at buying fat airics for everyone.

Ah yes and my non ehu equipment which I want before the start of next season (2 leisure batteries, solar chargers for the batteries, boot charger for when out and inverter.

Apart from that spent a fortune in the last 2 seasons getting everything we need to be as comfortable as possible. However, I might replace our quest chairs with something with a bit more padding!

I bought hubby one for Father's Day. We set up a treasure hunt round the house the first clue was wrapped up with a bag full of twigs, should have seen his face when he opened the twigs. He didn't even work out what it was until he eventually found and opened the box

I'm totally delighted with my tent and most of my kit but still want to do some fine tuning:

* Kitchen tent (goodness knows how much gas we wasted trying to boil the kettle in the wind).
* Trailer & towbar so we can fit all our gear in safely.
* New chairs, the current Tesco models aren't up to the job.
* A job where I'm not working every weekend so we can do weekend camping as a family. Right now we only get 2 weeks in the summer holidays... and life is just too short & precious.
