Aw, Pingvin, I've missed you - what creative things have you been up to for this year?
Sorry OP for hi-jacking - do you care what the neighbours think - your tent and home are your castle and holiday home in whichever order suits.
Sorry OP for partaking in the hi-jacking of the thread... only for a short remark - it's a long story, bridgeywidge - but now I am creative again, having bought the last bits for my inflatable DIY-tent!
I am going to garden-camp tonight, summer finally has come to Denmark. Just today I found a very cheap 3-person tent in ALDI, that fits into the garden, with 5 cm left to the hedge on one side and the flowerbed on the other! Last thing before I can go to "bed" (go to selfinflating madras) is to get the inflatable chair through the tent door, I inflated it in the kitchen, because I was a bit concerned what the neighbours would think about the strange noise, but now I am not sure it will fit through the tent door...

Some pics from my garden camp - and my embarrassing furniture fail...
As I wrote I was concerned about the size of my inflatable armchair - if it would fit through the tent door. The name of the tent, by the way, is Dory - after a blue fish.
Well, I got it through the door - but it couldn't be in the tent. I took a photo, got the armchair out of the tent, deflated it and inflated a smaller one.
When my daughter saw the photo, she screamed of laughter. Than I saw, too, what I'd done....
...and a picture showing, how the tent is squeezes into the garden:
...and a glimpse into the tent at night - with the smaller armchair:

We have been in the tent for the last 2 nights in the garden, in various combinations of people! I love it and so do the kids! I think my neighbours think I am crazy anyway so why not give them more reasons!
