Calling all campers...

[4F]

That site has an inflatable tent! Now that's just asking for a visitation from the p-fairy!

But that inflatable tent has the thickness of elephant skin. I am sure on that site there is a short film where the campers get out the tent, put the air pump on and then proceed to sit around on a couple of comfortable chairs whilst it inflates B) .

My whopper of a tent has 110 pegs to hammer in

My mate had some bad luck...he'd packed up his tent and kit, started to drive off, then got a puncture in the car tyre caused by a tent peg left on the ground.

Outwell do some good tents. I find the blue Vangos tend to be a bit gloomy inside.

I like these, Instant tent

I fancy a pop up tent too. However I don't think they would be much good for walkers or cyclists. They fold into a circle, with an increasing diameter for the higher number of berths.
I witnessed people at Glastonbury festival with these huge circles on their backs. They looked like tortoises!

Any reviews on the Decathlon ones ?

That Decathlon one claims to be for back packers .. but I can't imagine it would pack small enough for them...

+1 for vango, but don't put them (or any tent) away wet
