smutchie Posted May 12, 2009 Report Share Posted May 12, 2009 Bought my tent on Sunday....she's a beauty! £20 Tesco, and to be honest it's a pile of shit. But, it'll do! I say buy them up now, because they'll no doubt put the prices sky high come the end of the month. Got groundmats too, woo! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iain333 Posted May 12, 2009 Report Share Posted May 12, 2009 Hmm i've been temted to go for a cheapy tent this year, buuut have decided to get a slightly dearer one.

ampersand Posted May 13, 2009 Report Share Posted May 13, 2009 Does the job, unless you get anything more than a light shower! I've always taken shite tents to festivals and so far have been lucky but it's like playing a game of Russian Roulette! However this year I wont be camping in the normal campsite witht he peons and have instead opted for posh camping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alah Posted May 13, 2009 Report Share Posted May 13, 2009 Ha not in favour! I dont think they would suit Rockness at all! The money they would spend on someone like that could be much better spent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rachbon Posted June 2, 2009 Report Share Posted June 2, 2009 (edited) went to gooutdoors in coatbridge today and got the three man version of this tent. it's about the same size as a four man and it'll be really easy to pitch. was only £39. they had some great tents there, they had a massive 8 man beast of a tent for £60.
