That is not rain pattering on the 'canvas' that is a downpour, the sort that makes you paranoid you are going to wake up wet.

Sounds more like music festival camping and the side of your tent is being used by several people as a urinal...

I know, but when I found it I had to share it. Doesn't do alot for me, I prefer to see dappled sunlight coming through and warmth...

Camping? You want me to go camping? Listen...My idea of "roughing it" is a night at a Premier Inn with no cable tv in it!
*****************************
Paying to sleep outside .....Surely, that is an insult to homeless people?

You're a tad hardier than me then: although I'm sure the Guadaloupe can be nice and cosy. I'm just not keen on the damp in my bones and a frozen nose. Or getting out of a nice snug sleeping bag and going across to the loo block (I don't do DIY loos).

It's cold enough in my house in winter so in a tent...brrrrrrrr. Ah you lDover, so I'm a real southern softie

I was expecting the video to sound like the song from Bambi, all drip drip drip patter patter, not, as you said Pingvin, like a thundering and lightning waterfall!
