We bought a new family tent back in January that's too big to put up in our garden. It's still unopened and I'm hoping at some point soon we might be able to test pitch it in a family members garden (with social distancing). Just wondering how many others have a tent they bought and are eagerly waiting to pitch it and check it over?

what about going to your local school and put it up on their field? or even in a local park?

We did consider that but thought we'd probably struggle to persuade people it was our outdoor exercise if stopped and questioned (although us campers know getting a tent pitched is a good workout!)

I live halfway between Bewdley and Cleobury Mortimer about 1 mile from the Shrops border. If you are near enough you can put it up in one of my fields.

merluccius I've just stopped by and seen your comment. Thank you so much. I think we are going to be able to put the tent up in my brother's garden this weekend but thank you for the offer I really appreciate it.
