We eventually made it to Cornwall and had a lovely time. The weather was abysmal and although we did really enjoy ourselves we have vowed never to go again unless the weather is good.
The Montana 6 was fabulous, we absolutely loved, every day I grew to love it a little bit more, until...................... we came to take it down in what felt like gale force winds, it blew away, with me on top of it, I was NOT letting go! I imagine it looked hilarious, I now have visions of OH flying me and the tent like a kite over the coast of St Ives. Anyway, I managed to wrestle the tent to the floor with the help of the tent next door which monty ripped in to and tore a huge hole in. To cut a long story short we ended up paying for the couple whose tent we destroyed to stay in a caravan for the night, and gave them our tent. No other course of action available.
Gutted, but trying very hard to see the funny side!

Oh the poor scree family, and RIP Monty!

(we are supposedly going camping tomorrow to try out our brand spanking new Buckingham tent - perhaps I should reserve a post here too ..)

I like the way you are trying to see the funny side though - well done (imagine seeing it on YBF!!!)
