Hello Again,

           Thankyou to everyone who replied to my intro yesterday. Yes half of you were right I have become addicted to this site and everything to do with camping. (Is that such a bad thing?)

          What I am here for is to ask a few questions regarding my tent and the lack of knowledge I have on my own tent. My tent is a pro action family 6 tent (thats what the intrsuctions say) and I have no idea the advantages of this tent or the disadvantages. Does anyone know?

         Also I have no idea of the size of my tent in regards to pitches am I right in thinking that some tents do actually take up 2 pitches at a camp site? Does anyone know where I can find all this information out and has anyone ever had/got a tent like mine? Is it a rubbish one or an ok one?

        Many thanks in advance. Hmm told you I was a beginner!

What tent do you have now Miljee?

 Sounds ok the tent I have but last thing I want is to freeze or be hit with bad weather and then really regret camping, Perhaps this tent i have is ideal for trying camping out and then maybe if we do really like it get a new one however choosing one is going to be quite an adventure with the tents I have seen past couple of days.

Give it a go! The one thing you can never rely on is the weather! But if you do go down the line of getting a different tent have a look at the ones on the site your at. You can get a realistic idea of how the tent looks like with people’s kit inside, something you have to try and imagine at a showroom!

I have found many people to be of great help when I have asked them about their tents.

Arrr my little glitter thingy didnt work

We have this tent - it was used over 20 times last year and with no problems. It's a doddle to  errect  - we could normally get it unpacked and up in 20 minutes. Go enjoy!

PS - You'll find two silver ground sheets  - they look similar but are not - one is for the area between thr two Bed Pods - the other goes under the smaller Bed Pod

Thankyou for the replies, we are putting our tent up in the garden tomorrow so fingers crossed, be a first time putting a tent up for everyone so can only imagine the laugh we are going to be having.

Going away 8th April for proper so hope its not too difficult.
