While we were at Go Outdoors today, OH fell in love with the Norfolk Lake. He kept going in an out and plotting where we would put things.  Its usually me that does this.

He was on the laptop when we got home looking at dimensions of it and other polycotton tents. I quite like Bear Lake 4 as our daughter is getting older and could go in a pup tent and I like North Sea with an extension, but it doesnt look in the same qualilty as the Lakes, although it is hundreds of pounds cheaper.

I keep saying to him, lets sell Monty and extension and thats money towards it. The weight and pack size is putting him off though from Norfolk Lake.

I think because even he was cold at the weekend, the polycotton tents are calling him. lol

We've got one and love it - the good thing I think as opposed to the Bear Lake is your can do your cooking etc in the front bit and keep the inside bit zipped up for quiet time or the evening - we call that bit our lounge!!

Those pics are fab. Think we might wait until end of this season and see if there are any bargains to be had. You never know, these people that have tried it this year due to credit crunch and dont like camping.  We can live in hope lol.   We are going to go to Yeomans camping exhibition in Ilkley in a couple of weeks so hopefully we can have another good luck at them again.
