We erected the sunncamp prism inner tent last night, but the light began to fade. Did not manage to put the outer tent on.  Are all tents built in two parts, surely that is more work?  I guess it is good as it is a stronger structure.  I am happy with what I have seen so far.  We will put it to the test on Wednesday.  WIsh us luck.  After the first five minutes I was getting wound up, and that was without the kids around us.  I am a very impatient person.....

Good luck


Not all tents are in two parts, a lot of them are purely flysheet with inner sleeping pods. one advantage of this is that whn you get to camp and it is pouring with rain you can still get the tent up without the inside getting wet.

Take your time getting the tent up, if you feel that you are getting stressed then stop and have a coffee/tea/beer/wine or stronger depending on your preference.
