I know, RT, I got so excited when I saw that this morning!  How sad am I.

I'm going home tonight for a bit of a towelling session.  The sun is out at the moment so it will be drying now, I suppose its better to have periods of drying than a solid amount of rain

Fingers crossed

Hmm my tent may have been a bit damp in places around the sides at the bottom when we were putting it away,  but certainly not soaking wet and was dry underneath due to footprint.. Should I unpack it and completely dry it or will it be ok?

If I were you I would make sure you have it completely dry, mould and mildew can start with even the slightest moisture and its not worth the risk.

Tomorrow here is meant to be good weather so I am hoping I'll be able to pack mine up tomorrow evening and put it away.  due to go away again at the end of this month for a night and if the weather carries on like this, I could be chucking it in the car straight from the garden lol.
