I've posted this before, but I store mine, in the middle of my spare wheel. The only down side is that you have to empty the boot to get to them.

Canvas tent, paraffin light, petrol stove. Heaven
I'd rather be kayaking.
Spent up, not pent up, just had my new tent up.

Hope this works. First pack 8,

Then pack the remaining 6

It would be sad Kate if you didn't use these pegs.

Just to recap the yellow Deltas are no good for hard ground (so use rock pegs) but are excellent on any ground you can get the into.Use Deltas on the main guy ropes but not the guys on any vent flaps. If you want to push the boat out you can buy stainless steel Deltas for use with rock pegs which eans you can use them on any type of ground

Experience enables you to recognize a mistake when you make it again.
Everything has been said before, but since nobody ever listens we have to keep going back and saying it all over again and again and again

Hi Charliepop,
Just wondered how you got on pitching your new tent. We have also recently purchased a Kampa Croyde 6 and are loving it. We watched the YouTube clip on the Filey for tips on pitching. We also purchased some deltas (8) for extra security, based on advice from these forums. Haven't needed rock pegs as yet but plan on getting some for future.
Happy camping

Hi Susan ...... is it dreadful of me to admit we haven't done our test pitch yet - got to be a day when my husband and I are both here and free and it looks like the weekend after next now... he literally goes into a cold sweat when i talk about it so treading very carefully and want to make it as stress-free as possible....wish me luck!! Any tips with the tent much appreciated. Glad to hear you like it.
