Currently have 2 to my name

Vango Diablo 600
Gelert Rocky 3 man

Looking at getting the Wynnster Shelter for use when camping, not keen on the Diablo canopy as I have always used the side door.

Looking also at a tent to take to the Scilly's. The Diablo is nice but big, and as we wont have loads of stuff may also be empty! Still not sure though! (Oh the decisions)

Hello peeps. Well it is good to take stock once in a while but don't let onto my OH that we have all these as I have pledged that we are downsizing the camping stock and stuff will be flogged on Ebay and at car boots: in order of age we have the following.

Vango Quest 600 – high spec tunnel tent with 6000HH fabric and alloy poles. It is 6 years old now and still doing well, though I keep wondering when UV will finally do for it.

Coleman adrenaline 3 – OH’s high spec 5 season small dome for winter fossil hunting trips. Superb build quality and still going strong after 3 years

Gelert beach shelter

Outdoor Revolution Outhouse – 3 years old now and doing great service

Vaude Opera - high spec lightweight tunnel tent great for weekend breaks – 2 years old and has survived some very heavy weather indeed – thank the gods for alloy poles.

Khyam Screenhouse - used as luxury gazebo and day tent when camping with friends

Coleman Avior 3 – bought with intention of trying a backpacking trip (ah the nostalgia) , but so far my back ain’t up to it!!!!! Think that is one for Ebay.

 

Vango Orchy 600 - great tent for touring in the damp of the British Isles

 

Quechua Seconds Base full – bought this very week and may oust the Screenhouse if it proves to be the more versatile item.

 

 

 

Of course, what I REALLY REALLY want is a cotton canvas tent, but until we have space for drying such a tent whilst erected, it would be daft to buy one. At least with the manmade fabrics we can just spread it out in the spare bedroom to dry.
