If anyone needs spare poles from a new-ish Argos 2/3 man tent give me a shout.

I found one busted up in Fofanny Wood the other week.

The poles are mostly between 21.5" and 22" long, with five yellow ones being 24.5" long and about 3/8" diamater

Tent was dry & clean and didn't seem damaged but I had to cut some holes in the pole sleeves to get the poles out...and I've stolen all the guy lines Wink If anyone wants that as well, feel free, it's not made it to the dump yet..but the wife's getting twitchy...


It's gone. \o/ bit of floor space reclaimed from the garage.
