STILL not put the tent up in the garden, we were going to do it this weekend for a party we had but it was too wet, instead we put a tarp up to put the BBQ under and a table.
oh my god it took FOREVER to get it up - DH was faffing around and making the ropes as long as poss, i was trying to remember my one and only girl guide camp "training" from 10 years ago and attenmpting to tie the damn things.
Ended up using the 2 poles and 2 mic stands, my side was all neatly guyed in tight and secure ish (tied with lots of knots) DH had his side hooked over the washing line and round a tree before tying to the ground!!
