Now we are into the new year I am starting to look at the summer of camping ahead. Decided a need a new tent, smaller one for when my teens stay at home that I can put up Withnonly a 3 year olds help. Having decided on a tent I went searching for the cheapest place to buy it and while looking I checked out tesco.com. Was most impressed to see at the bottom of description of the tent the was a warning never to take BBQ into tent or caravan......think it's a great idea to put a warning like this right next to the info for people who don't know better to see.

Ps. It's may have already been spoken about?. I admit I have been absent all winter!

Hi,
no you haven't re-started any thing

this is just what we have all been saying should happen... this subject being advertised... and what better place than the instructions for the tent...

That is fantastic, well done Tesco.

Another way to help spread the word, is to click on my signature and print out a couple of the posters to hand out on site or to the site owners to display in their reception areas.

Cheers Ratty

That is good to hear that the message is getting out there. The more people that know the less tragedies there will hopefully be.

Well done Tesco, now if only the tent manufacturers would sew a lable into their tents with this warning in Big Red Letters.

Dance before the storm and don't look back to where you've been.

If you can keep your head when all around you are losing theirs, you obviously haven't grasped the gravity of the situation.

I don't want it I just need it.
