Thanks for the research Rick and Mel...Sorry I cant give you credit for the £503 posting on 4 Sept, I ordered at this price on 3rd Sept after spotting the deal on 1st Sept.
Anyway, thanks to all posters who did, and continue to help me, and other site users.

Don't forget to leave a review of all tents you've used, for a chance to win fantastic prizes
oh yeah sorry,i do give you credit for the £503.00 price so thanks for that rickit.its like deal or no deal now,have to wait to see if i dealt too soon!
were also tring to decide what we can leave behind and the four 99cm wide ready beds we use have to go in favour of 2 aerobed actives.also the double burner and grill with gas bottle is going to be swapped for 2 suitcase burner rings! cant think of anything else yet but going to empty the camping cupboard and see,hope i dont have to leave my toilet,radiator,wardrobe,carpet etc and all the other stuff people who have never camped laugh at!
just been reading my other thread on" best time to buy" and i thanked you for all your help ricket on that thread....just not on this one,was thinking its not like me not to say thanks so i read back over it and i did.
We also have a Norfolk lake form PJ Camping and love it - we have to pack the poles, groundsheets and tent in separate bags to fit it in the car. We had to strike ours wet in August and yet within half a day in the garden she was dry - fantastic. we use our side canopy and it's perfect.
Having said that one of our bedroom compartment toggles ripped out wen we first put it up (you try finding a super size safety pin in Devon!) we returned it to Pj who were great about replacing it, but the replacement is a slightly different colour so we're having all 3 bedrooms changed - when their courier comes to pick them up! They were supposed to be here on Monday........mm guess who is on the phone tomorrow!
