OK...
So I have a tent and all the associated equipment to go with it....I have the children...the almost willing hubby...the enthusiastic best friend and we were planning to go on our first 'tenting' experience next weekend.
Now Im scared...
Firstly I have never put up a tent in my life..this is a 4 person dome tent with 2 bedrooms..I can't try it out as don't have a garden..if I were to try it out in the park I will get chased away by the park ranger..I have visions of us 'trying' to put up our tent in the forecast rain with 50 other campers looking on an laughing at our total incapabilities as novice campers!! Is it really that hard to put it up?
Secondly...it is forecast rain all next weekend... Is it foolish to go tenting in the rain? My tent being a cheap one only has a hydrostatic rating of 2000mm.... does this mean we are going to get soaked??? Or will it hold up to april showers??
Please reassure me
