oh no! well so far rather (cautiously) pleased with mine! no leaks, but my bro had a bit of a condensation problem, going to try again tonight with his pod door unzipped a bit for a bit more ventilation. is condensation a common problem then? i was fine in my bit but he was warmer than me, he had about three blankets, a quilt and a sleeping bag!

hee, no, don't worry! our cats were in and out of it all night though, hope that doesn't mean it'll be an open invitation for rabbits and hedgehogs and the like when we're out and about in it!
