Today I put my new tent up in my daughters back garden ..a Gelert Alaska 8.. and in the words of my 4 year old grandson...I did it all by my own !!!! and I'm so chuffed,  it took an hour ( but seemed much quicker ) including 2 of the bedrooms - If the other double bedroom is left out It's like a dance hall !!  so I am very pleased with myself and I am giving myself a pat on the back...WELL DONE ME !

Well done.   [:o)]   What's more is that it will be quicker next time.
Don't worry about setting up, taking down in the rain, we've all been there, and it is part of the camping fun.

I have yet to try the Diablo 600 on my own, it is possible I am sure.

If you can do it on your own its even better with help. Well done you!

I wish my husband knew what he was doing... Mind you, after putting it up for first time in wind and rain, the next time should be a breeze  lol
