I think I'd try and get it dried within a couple or three days, otherwise you are in danger of mildew getting into it.

If it is still raining at this time, either sacrifice a bedroom for a night and spread it out to air it, or hang it out on the line anyway. It will still get aired that way.

When packing it in the rain try and always fold it clean to clean, and dirty to dirty.

I DIDNT NEED TO KNOW HOW LONG IT TAKES TO DRY  JUST HOW LONG IT IS OK TO BE LEFT WET AND IN ITS BAG FOR I HAVE BEEN VERY LUCKY NEVER TO PACK UP IN THE RAIN BUT THIS WEEKEND LUCKS LIKE BEING THE EXCEPTION THANKS

I think I'll go camping when you do in future if the weathers has been good thus far. Maybe you should stick your dates on the forum, then we can all get some decent weather!!!

Hi BOD - You are bang on there mate. It is the football club site. Taken  2005 TT week. An absolutely cracking spot. A clubhouse bar across the pitch, which means you can stagger back to the tent at night, and if you don't make it, you wake up within crawling distance ... Marvellous.

Peter who runs it, is a geat bloke, always has a chat with you. In fact, if there was an event in the Olympics for talking, I think he'd be a top contender.

I'm doing the MGP this year instead of the TT, but have booked a passage for TT 2007.

Do you live nearby BOD?
