I went on a solo camp this weekend just past - I really enjoyed myself just chilling out at the coastal site in Northern Ireland - with direct access to the beautiful Benone Strand it was idyllic.

I had recently purchased another Quechua pop up, the four man one. I already had the base seconds (the taller one). I pitched them butting up against' each other because this site charges for pup tents and utility tents, and I was going to argue the case for a 'modular system'. In the end the site (which is local authority and run by students in the summer) wasn't one bit bothered so I could have pitched the two tents a little bit apart from each other. It worked out well for me anyway.

We have got the 2 seconds 3 person tent. It is wonderful, I just love it.  Its just right for 2 people in the garden,or a quick overnight stay. Its roomy, cosy and cute.  And easier to fold up than I thought it would be. My daughter is taking it to 2 festivals this summer. Woe betide her if she leaves it behind !!

Your set up looks great, bags of room for one !

Love it  Love it   Love it   Victoria,

I can't think of anythin better than solo camping with my Springer Spaniel.   I think you are so brave.    I don't think I have the confidence to do it alone yet...   But I hope I will have 1 day.

Blimey! What a lot of Quechua porn to oggle over!

Your set up looks great, Victoria; yours does too F5.

How do the 'pagoda' style BII 4 tents stand up to the wind? I saw a couple suffering in the recent gales but perhaps that was down to poor pitching?
