Have just had a practise of putting the tent up by myself

[StripeyKnickersSpottySocks]

And it took me 20mins which I was quite pleased with seeing as its quite a big tent (Outwell Colarado Plus).

Hubby sat there telling me what to do. At least I know I can do it now so on Monday it should be ok. My arms are aching and my back is killing me though! Now just waiting for my lesson in how to pack it down so it fits in the bag

Well done you!

Is it the Colorado 5?

We leave our pole bag out of the main tent bag - it provides more packing options in the boot of the car!

Where are you heading on Monday?

Its a 5person tent so I'm guessing its the Colarado 5, but it says plus on the bag so not sure.

Will remember your tip about leaving the pole bag out. I'm off to Eweleaze near Weymouth on Monday.

ahh of course i remember supplying the good weather forecast!

Yes, am feeling happier about the weather now (fingers crossed).
