Although gelert foot prints these are big and cheap enough to chop down. Check out the tent reviews for a rough size. There is a delivery charge of £4 but only per parcel not items. Simple buy more stuff!

Great find! I got a groundsheet for an 8 man lichfield and got footprints for three smaller tents out of it.

So, by folding and gorilla taping the Horizon 8 in half, I can have a double thickness footprint for £14.99... or with a bit more folding, and a little more tape, I can do similar with the Horizon 10 (mostly double thickness, but treble thickness in places!) for just £4.99! Even nearly doubling that with delivery, how could I turn that down!

And it's grey, so I won't get it confused with all the other bloody footprints I've got!!

I'm on it, Cabravieja... I owe yer one!



EDIT:

Done! Thanks again!

Great find. Been looking for a decent tarp to make a footprint for our 5m bell tent. Couple of these taped together will be ideal

There is a downside to all this, it seems... for me, at least!

It now appears that they rely on the only couriers in the country that cannot find my office!

Seems they "Missed me" earlier today... despite me being in all day! I'm sure all will be well, when they "Automatically try again tomorrow"!

Not for the first time, I fear this courier will end up sending my stuff back to the supplier!

It's enough to make you scream... or at least yodel a bit!!

I have this problem at home, I waited in all day and got argos'd about by the website informing me the parcel was left in my garage. It would have been nice however we don't have a garage! the next cul de sac from us has a very similar name (Heath/Heather) so some delivery drivers just assume we have put our address down wrong.

To add insult to injury on that occasion I phoned them to explain what had happened and as it was (flat pack) furniture they needed to pick it up and bring it to me which they advised would be done the following day. That evening I was curious and detoured slightly on my way home, no one was at the house and the garage door was wide open for all to see my parcel! I loaded it into my car and never heard from the company again, not even a call enquiring if all was sorted

They tend to me people making pin money, so not pro couriers
