another half hour for internal stuff....

Roof bar, runs full length of main tent......

Bedroom pod, centre wall rolled back to give one large room....

Roof liner to living space. for added insulation....

All in, 2 and a half hours on me todd, for a 5 pole, 6 man, pollycotton tent.

I am now officially, the happiest camper in campsville!!

With major thanks to Steve Cross and team for the vid (pitching a polyester one).
I had my doubts, due to the weight of the pollycotton, but get the technique right, and you are virtually there!!!
