Apart from the muddy footprints all over the flappy things...but then I suppose they are called mudflaps.

Not read the thread just the title, so apologies if this is not that relevant but I make sure I wear a really good bra.

I wonder if you could add something like this

Plastic eyelets

half way along your mud flap to allow you to peg them down on the inside under your ground sheet.

Not sure if those cling on things people use would take a tent stake directly as I have never used them. If you can sew - a bit of nylon webbing with a d ring sewn at intervals on the mud flap would allow you to peg it down, either inside, or outside.

As it was the first time I'd done it (early in my camping career) I'd probably now advise a short bit of guy or elastic in between, but it worked well, to be fair...

However, I guess I reached the conclusion that it either didn't matter, or I just couldn't be bothered, as subsequent camps I just left them draped loose inside...
