Re: the damp air in the tent - if as you say you had torrential rain the dampness you experienced could in fact be the rain atomising as it hits the tent fabric. It is a woven fabric after all and therefore will have tiny holes that will allow water molecules through. The thicker and better quality the fabric the less likelihood there is of this happening.
Hi
Lots of condenastion about this year. The zip fabric is a susceptible place for leaks especiall if the zip covers have not been Velcroed in place properly. If it was the zip fabric leaking spray it with Fabsil spray

Everything has been said before, but since nobody ever listens we have to keep going back and saying it all over again and again and again
