Lending tent to friends, have realised we've lost the instructions...

Is there an easy way to get new instructions? I've tried googling and all I can find are product reviews. I was really hoping that I'd just be able to download them somewhere but I can't find anything.

I remember it being a total nightmare the first time we tried to put it up so I'm a bit worried about just giving them a few verbal pointers.

Can you put it up in their garden or yours and show them how to do it, might be more help than instructions anyway.

What is it? maybe someone can scan theirs and email you them.

A lot of tents have pitching videos on youtube - I have lent out a tent this week and we just watched the video and talked it through. Perhaps you can find something similar?

Often instructions are sewn into the bag on a big label.

It's a harvard campus deluxe, will go and look at youtube now. I'd never have thought of that!

Our old trusty eurohike had the instructions on a label sewn in the bag but it was so simple we never looked at them after the first time. Typical that the complicated tent had a 5 page document which we've managed to lose.

I'm not sure how long they'll be stopping for when they pick it up, I don't think it'll be long enough for a demonstration though.
