I'm sort of wondering if maybe we should have left it until next year too - but too late now.

We have used it twice since we bought the tent, plus I'm sure my hubby rather likes the idea of a tarp

Two of the best value family sized inflatable tents for 2015 will be the kampa Croyde 6 Air at around £850 and the Outdoor Revolution which will be around £1000. Both will have an enclosed front porch area and will be made out of a 150 denier fabric, a rip stop uv resistant fabric in the case of the Outdoor Rev, I have books with images etc if you want to call in...

Gary or anyone else in the know, can you confirm whether the Elite Airbeam side awning fits the Evoque? I've seen conflicting information, some sites saying its only for the Inspire and won't fit an Eclipse/Evoque but surely that's basically theyre all the same outer body shape/design and Ive seen an old completed Ebay auction where someone was selling an Evoque with the side awning second hand?

Not sure the side awning is for us really but its another option i guess.

Having seen none for sale since I started looking 3 months ago, two brand new sun canopies happened to pop up on eBay this evening within a couple of hours of each other! One from Caseys which I missed but another from Norwich Camping which I managed to buy so perhaps more will surface as dealers clear out store rooms over the winter. My advice would be to set up an alert search on eBay which should email you when something matching your search criteria pops up, seems to have worked for me (assuming it arrives!:))

Hi Locoblade

I ordered mine from Norwich Camping on Tuesday night, it was despatched on Wednesday and I received it yesterday - so you should get it OK

I don't know either Gary, we happened to call in when we were over that way a month or so ago, and they didn't have any on the shelf then.

I'm sure it will go lovely with the tent that we bought from you

Thanks Debbie, £10 cheaper than I paid on Ebay on NorwichCamping's own website as well, argh! Oh well, didn't have time to check last night, was paranoid it was the last one I'd ever see so had to grab it quick.

Looks like they're all coming out of the woodwork now, another one Caseys have dug out the store room..
