Last nght i was gonna post a topic on

If anybody knows if a canopy would fit the windsor,but i got nosy and read loads of threads

Well today i nipped into millets and asked them about one,and yes they do one this year,i do have to order it,i shall do this 2moro when i leave work,but i wanted to show OH it [not the same in the book] so i have gone on line and it wont come up.

They did have 1 in the shop but a gent is picking it up on saturday as they had to order it for him,so i dont know why i cant get it up on line.

I do hope when it arrives hubby likes it.

They also do a eurohike windbreak,but that too is not the 1 in the book,so i am not having much sucsess showing hubby what i am spending his money on,

Hi Joanne,

I have just bought the same tent as you, which was a mindfield in itself as I found it had 3 different prices (instore brochure, instore magazine, and online).  Just wondered if you could let me know whether the canopy is worth the extra £50, they couldn't even tell me in the shop if it has covered sides or is just a gazebo, and I couldn't find it on line either. 

Thanks, Sharon

i am so sorry i did not get back sooner,yes it is well worth the extra it has the sides on it and windows down both sides,it does not show this in the book,so i was really pleased with it and it really does make a differance.

I went into millets and they did not know it had the sides on either,so they can now tell other customers that they are really getting a bargain,

Hope this helps,and it gives about an extra 6 foot on the size of the tent.

if u press the links, it will take you to the canopy on our tent.

it came in very usefull

:]

Thanks Joanne,

They really are underselling this in the brochure.  It looks much better.  Why don't the millet's staff know anything? I was even told not to bother ordering anything from the shop but to ring up, as it takes 3 to 4 weeks for them to get a delivery into the store. Shame, it's like a sweet shop when you've just started camping.

Thanks again for the pics.

Sharon

it took 2 weeks or the canopy to come,and as i said it was well worth every penny,if you have children in the scouts,or students[dont know if school children come under that]but you can get 10%off. i also got the windbrake to match it must be about 10 to 12 foot £19.99.

I think i should work for millets i would love to test all there other things out and then i would be able to keep eveyone informed
