Can anyone advise where to put the front two guys when the canopy is up? We have them pinned close to the front as we didn't want them in the canopy where they would be in the way. This positioning I think has caused a slight slack in the living area roof which isn't a problem but with the total deluge we had yesterday caused water to pool there. (Although we are very impressed how snug and dry we were during this bleak period. ) or if anyone can suggest how else we can fix this dip pls let me know. It's our first trip with this tent. Now the sun's out we are going to have a look at the other ropes etc to see if we can fix it. But advice always welcome. Thanks.

I always guyed mine out to the side, but just inside the canopy. I had no groundsheet in my canopy, and the design has changed slightly over the last few years, so if yours has a SIG then obviously you will have to find another way.
