HI,

I have bought a Norfolk lake tent and was sure that there were full length verticle mesh pockets to hang in the inside living area of the tent which seem to be missing on mine, as well as the tent pegs.  I have the horizontal pockets which hang in the porch area, but nothing on the inside, the shop i bought the tent from doesn't think the NL has them but on the outwell site and also ont Bear lake they have them between  the sleeping pods at the back, if anyone out there has one could they let me know so that i can contact the shop.

many thanks

AT.

Didn't get mesh pockets with mine - though did get 90 pegs ( Seemed so many I felt obliged to count them  ) Seems I might have your share.

I can't see any mesh pockets when I've looked on the Outwell site but can sometimes suffer from screen blindness - whereabouts have you spotted them?

*Edit - Spotted on Sun Valley 8 set up video. No didn't get a version of those with mine.

We just got the horizontal pockets which we hang on the partition between living area and porch (we don't use third inner). Never seen any vertical tent tidy's!

None vertical here either.

But our horizontal ones only have fixings on the living area side and not the porch where I would prefer them.

Thanks for all your reply's, another question ( you can tell i'v never owned a tent be) !!

When you put either the front or side door up using the poles so it acts like a small canopy, which guide ropes do you use to attach to the poles ?  do you have to buy spare ones to put on there or should i have them??

Thank goodness for all you experienced campers !

There should be 2 spare guys - you can't miss them as they're luminous yellow -  in the peg bag with 2 blue pegs for holding the poles up.

Outwell do sell a pole accessory kit which consists of 2 poles, 2 guys  & 2 blue pegs for about £13.  This can be useful if you want to have 2 doors up at the same time.

Make sure you get the 2m ones and not the 1.3m ones (unless you're a midget of course)

sorry - should that have been 'vertically challenged'?
