Thanks for the additional information... we too do the legs one by one when putting up and taking down the tent... it was just that first one that we had problems with. Normally we have the kids with us so have got one of them to hold up a leg whilst one of us put in that first important peg, however we were in the tent just on our own ... (sharing the tent with our bikes) - loads of room for the two of us.

I think we can get the tent up and stuff inside in about an hour ... probably just over that...

Was the tension strap at its loosest? I didn't have any trouble getting the pins in.

I think that might have been the problem.

Hello well done you, if you dont mind me asking how much did you pay for your monty 6. Were going to get one for next year (when weve saved all our pennies up)

Debbie............tied to delete part of post but its not letting me as its been there for over 12 hours........ooooops forgot there may still be blacks spys about!!!!

let me make sure I have this clear............you put the first roof and legs poles in at the back......whilst on the floor.......(are the legs pointing towards the front or back?)...then you guy the middle guy and peg the back at ends and side...........then you put the next roof pole and legs in.............This is how we take it down, but its the one way we havn't put it up.we usually put all the poles in and then it weighs a ton.

WELL DONE............i'm impressed
