Well we're back now and wondering if that site ever gets any repeat business!

Definitely won't be going back there again. Holiday park camping isn't really our thing anyway but we didn't have any actual say in where we were going this time.

The tent did well on Tuesday night and Wednesday when it was hammering down and the wind was doing something in the region of 60mph gusts - it was very noisy when it was blowing around though!

After all that performance!!! I assume you are sticking with it . I'm affraid holiday parks are best avoided at weekends and school holidays , unless you indulge in that lifestyle.

Yeah we'll be sticking with it. I'm a bit nervous about our next trip out with it though as we were away with 17 other people this time so we had help standing it up , but I think I'm going to have to get myself down the gym for next time!!

It was ok coming down though and we even managed to get it back in the bag

Sounds like it was a great test for your tent and I'm delighted it stood up to the test well !

We're back home tomo :-( Later today I guess as it's late now... Glad to say our  Bear Lake stood up to those nasty winds on Tues and Wed... (A tin tenter commented on how sturdy our tent looked compared to the others on the site)...

Don't want to go home... The weather is improving daily...

Damn this work stuff that gets in the way....
