it does seem very big for only 3.35kg, excellent
think outside, no box required

My thoughts exactly. I'm just wondering what it packs like. I'll let you guys know some time next week.

Congratulations.  I always liked that shape of tent as they are pretty cosy to sit in if the weather turns foul (which lets face it, happens often!).  Also great for cycle touring if you can fit your bikes in the porch.

Tent came this morning at half eight. You should all try the free trail prime account on amazon. Insane. Anyway seems awesome so far as I cant take it out of the bag til Oisin comes down this afternoon so at the minute all I can tell you is Nice colours and weight is decent for halving. :)

I haven't ordered off Amazon in a while; they do rock even with free shipping  ;D

Some places on the mainland can get same day delivery if they're near one of their DC's.

just make sure you cancel the free trial, or they will start taking money off your card down the line without notice!

That's close to where we pitched last year ;D

It had rained quite heavy the previous few days so I wasn't brave / stupid enough to bring the car up. A few did and made a real mess of the grass  ::)

I like your 2nd pic of family breakfast  ;D

Camped on a bit further down the slope. Not much drainage, we we're sort of swamped.
