Hello
We are back. Oh I've so missed coming on this site for a look at all camping related info.
Yes tomorrow is the day that we have decided to take the tent out to air it and see if we can camp in it for the weekend. So we are booked into a site locally (just incase) and we carnt wait.
The worry I've got is 'do you think it mite need waterproofing because it's been stored away for so long?'
And would there be anymore problems that mite arise with it.
We have a vango Diablo and 3 kids plus mother.

Hello and welcome back! We've used tents which have been stored for a long time and they've been fine. You're doing the right thing camping locally to check it out and see! Fingers crossed!

Thanks sarahsop, that's what others have said to me. Fingers crossed it will be fine.
I'm really looking forward to it.

Why not give it a reproof anyway whilst you've got it up.
