After a bad night with a tarp on Binnian I bought a new tent as well :D

Yep Suspect, like when the weather is wild, having somewhere dry to change\sleep seems very important to me now!  Though the other guys manage it without a tent, I'm still a bit of a nubber !

I'm being a nosey git but what tent you get  ;D
Everywhere is within walking distance if you have the time.

Bit of a boob on their website.

The red one says  "RRP £235   £240"!

"Not all those who wander are lost."

The green laser competition......

They are reorganising their website so things are all messed up.....

They also seem to have put the prices up a bit....

The red one was cheaper then the green one, I asked if they'd sell me the green one for the same price as the red one, and they said, aye - alright!

So, I got it for £224 + £10 delivery....

I still insist its either a tent, or a bivvy by itself.  Personally I still struggle to see the appeal of a tarp.  A 3x3 tarp with walking poles and bivvy bag is heavier than most lightweight tents, and for all that kit you get a giant kite with no head room.  I know some will say that you feel more outdoors under a tarp, but from my own experience I just end up trying to make a tarp the same shape as a tent anyway.  If you want to sleep under the stars then do it properly and just use a bivvy bag.  If you want some shelter, just use a tent :)  Looking forward to seeing your Laser Mike!

That said, a Tarptent is perfectly acceptable in my book :)
