A sig is a sewn in groundsheet, attached to the whole tent, not a loose removable one.

Sorry I don't know the exact measurements of the vancouver, only seem to remember it was about 6m long and about 4m wide. I have searched on google but can't find any info, and the slumbalux factory has closed recently , so no website any more.

The tent in Makro is the Gelert Meridian 10 - it's £150 + vat (£176 ) and comes in blue or green .. measurements are 710 x 400 cm and 220 high there is also a matching side canopy for £20 plus vat. the extra 10 cm is in the mength and given that it's the width of pitches that causes most problems I would reckon you can get away with an extra 10cm.

It also has a sewn in groundsheet.

looks like this
