Floggitt, camping trip is going well and currently holed up in South London. £19 isn't bad for a big parcel from Holland!

When is someone going to market a camp bed with adjustable legs to solve this problem. I have bits of wood to level mine out when I use it. I was thinking of using some thick ply wood, 6' x 2' for when I use my S I bed

Spent up, not pent up, just had my new tent up.

Raining here, which in West Wales is not exactly unusual, but the neighbours must wonder what the idiot next door is up to again. I have just been outside with the torch to check Rosy for leaks, happily she is dry inside. The canvas feels soft and warm to the touch inside, not like the polyester which is cold and plastic like. I am really getting into this canvas camping. Just put a bid on a cabanon, whoops finger slippage.

Oooh - just catching up with threads and spotted your new baby Floggitt - she's beautiful

Glad to hear you're a canvas convert now - there's nothing lke the smell of canvas - and the sound of rain - bliss!

Now if I lived nearer I'd offer to come and tweak her a little for you - get rid dof one or two little wrinkles  - nah, my back isn't up to it at the moment and anyway, she's pitched beautifully

Are you still garden camping in her?

Welcome to my world floggitt, fab tent for the money. Spent Mon - Sat in mine last week at War & Peace show in Kent, love using it but must admit don't very often use inner, gives so much more room & is still cosy.

Raf48, carp fishing bedchairs, been using 6 leg prologic so far this year, each foot can be adjusted up or down by several inches, can tilt it any way you want.

As I was pitching her, I was thinking of you standing behind me and thinking what you would say about any creases. My excuse is that the ground is a bit lumpy


Truth is I tried to pitch it and then zipped in the zig when it was half up. I promise to do better next time. Hope your starting to feel better now, have a virtual back rub from me.

Hi Gumball,

Doh, I know that    I have two carp beds, I used them two weeks ago and adjusted the legs to remove the slope.  I must have been having a MAJOR senior moment when I did that post. Thanks for reminding me, that it's already been invented, and I have TWO.

    ( The  'Doh, I know that', refers to me being an IDIOT  )

Rosas, is back in the bag. It was a nice warm dry day so I have packed her away until next weekend. Less than 15 minutes from start to finish, so I am pleased with that.
Next trip for her is Tenby
