Many thanks to everyone for the suggestions for drying our tent.
We decided to hang it in the stair well of the flats and it has taken 2 days to dry and last night we covered the lounge with it and now it is bone dry including dry guy ropes!

I left mine laid out flat in the garage for a week and then I pitched it out in the garden today in the glorious sunshine.  It  actually dried out fully in the garage but I wanted to air it out a bit.  Thank goodness it's now all packed away and ready for the next trip! (had to do it alone as hubby ill in bed!)
