Hiya folks, name's Lance - 1st post so just bear with me :-)...just bought a tunnel tent (Milano 6) and haven't had a go at getting it up (Oo'er!) as yet lol, has any one had experience erecting one? was it hard? hey I'm changing the subject, this is starting to look a bit on the smutty side lol, tho there's nowt wrong with that!...

1st tent (just a few years back) was a kids dome tent - £12, just big enough for blow up mattress to fit in but what a laugh we had, 2nd tent was almost the same but with a door flap arrangement, last tent was a 1/4 tonne 60's frame tent with cast Iron gurders! laughing stock of Beddgellert Camp Site getting that up! - no it's true! lol made a right arse of our selves :-) and we only had 6 tent pegs out of about 300 we needed - laughed so much we got arrested for being drunk in charge of slack guy rope! I wouldn't mind but we didn't even have one! lol

Anyways - what can I expect with this new light weight but big tent, I'll be on my own as parted from OH ages ago (is that too much info? lol) and according to the box, I've got every part I need!

I'm always glad of a tip and I'm all ears! well that's not actually true cos I do have a leg and an eye lol

Lance :-)
