Thread Name: BS: The Joys of Camping
Subject: RE: BS: The Joys of Camping
Me & the Fiends are off to Anglesey next w/end, so I'm presently tweaking me tent, gazebo & other camping paraphenalia so we can be comfy for the 4 days we'll be under canvas whatever.

The gazebo's great for shade if it's scorchio weather & shelter if rainy.

I've used it at a few fests over the years but as they're really meant for garden use, aren't very strongly made to withstand some conditions,

After having it blown down a coupla times, I've needed to replace some poles with stronger ones from old frame tents.

A chap recently had those new type of tents which almost erect themselves & live inside large circular bags which look like giant bodrhans!

Anyone else use these?
