aye! i was in a local army surplus store last week and they had some legendary ex army tents in there, something like £100 for 16-20 man tents. And they've been thrown out by the army, so you know they're good

If it's for somewhere you'll be socialising and there's a chance of rain you can't beat the massive bit in the middle of a big tent.

No stock in the whole country on the 4 man. Ormskirk has 1 of the 3 man.


I would rather lose by a mile because i built my own car, than win by an inch because someone else built it for me.

Always found halfords tents to be a massive false economy. My cheapy one leaked like an absoloute siv when i went to the IOM.

Same as anything really, buy good buy once!
