Found a great tent today, bargain price, a Vango Venture 500 for only £59.99 at Go Outdoors! Plus the Coventry store had a green one in stock, which I prefer against the blue. Luckily we got the last green one in the crate and there were only a handful of blue ones left. I’ve had Vango stuff before and they’ve always been great, and that particular tent is popular and well praised so definitely a good buy I think.
Put it up in Nicola’s garden this afternoon, make sure all was there and correct. Looks good, nice and roomy. Thought best to double check it was fine, always a bit dubious of the last one in stock. Hopefully will be able to put it to proper use soon. Thinking of taking Nicola to Wales as she’s never camped before.
Now to decide whether to keep my Vango Omega 450 from last year (as it’s smaller and faster to put up, might make a good spare) or sell it on.

I hope that you slept outside in the garden that night and toasted marshmallows like a little adventure. It reminds me of being a kid pitching a tent in the garden and getting your mates to stay over. Such fun. x
t was so tempting! But the tent was almost the exact same size as the lawn and couldn’t be pegged out properly…can’t wait til I can use it though toasted marshmallows are the best! Mmm i can almost taste that burnt sugary goo now…!
hehe. I remember camping in America and having smores. You have to try them, they are the best with marshmallows.
*Off to Wikipedia to see what they are*
Mmm they look pretty tasty! Sure I could knock up something similar in Wales!
