Just bought a new tent (well second hand one) and as i am a newbie to camping i wondered what are the best type of pegs to get. It comes with the bog standard ones, but i am sure i read somewhere that its best to buy some good quality ones.....any suggestions ??........anyone ??? :-)

groundsheet pegs - so the kids dont hurt their feet when they are walking inside
bright ones for outside - so the kids (or you) dont fall over them
thick metal ones like screws & v shaped ones for important guys that hold the whole tent up
deltas - for the tail end of a hurricane!! (believe me - i've been in one in the gower with the deltas & they really work) search for them on this site
which leaves you the little metal ones they give you with the tent to peg the bottom down!!!
I'll second the recommendation for Deltas. Really clever pegs and worth every penny. if you value your tent - get deltas for your guylines. It will help you sleep easy at night. This time last year I was wondering what all the fuss was with Delta pegs - Now after using them I know exactly why people recommend them. They are brilliant.

Cool campers use Delta Pegs.

Rock pegs are a good bet too as some ground can look soft, till you realise your pegs are just not going in.
