Hi all

We returned from Fforest Fields (FAB campsite by the way), our last night and day the weather turned really windy (not sure how strong the winds were but it was strong anough to make me get up and check the pegs were where they should be - of course my husband slept through all this 17). The awning groundsheet in our Hartford XL tore straight across due to being lifted by the strong winds 17. Do you know where I can get a replacement from? Or I am wondering if any small grounsheet will do?

Also noticed a rip in the awning seam where the tent fabric joins onto the "black flap" 17 (sorry can't think if the technical term). Can I get this repaierd? The rip is about 1 inch long 17

Thanks all.

Sarah

when you say awning i presume to mean porch extension.

anyway some black duck tape will repair your grounsheet failing that get a cheap black tarp and fold it into place?

seam seal from go outdoors is about a fiver and should repair the  small rip fine if on seam.seal.  if you have accidentally ripped the side (easy enough to do with the hartford) then again black duck tape probably better than seam seal.
