I was a Girl Scout for 10 years, but I was terribly afraid of dirt and could never seem to get a campfire going. I'm determined to change all that now, though, and this weekend I practiced setting up our new tent on the allotment.
G very kindly deciphered the directions, which assumed a familiarity with flysheets. And veteran campers may notice I omitted a few pegs along the sides of the tent. But all in all I'm terribly pleased with the whole thing.
Now I just need to work on my fire building skills (although a camping stove is probably more sensible) for the hot dogs and s'mores--yum!
Nice tent! It looks very professionally put up...are you going to have a practice camp on the allotment?!
ReplyDeleteit's a very pretty tent! now you get to buy lots of gorgeous enamel mugs and plates, and other stylish accessories!
ReplyDeleteHi Kristina - you managed to put the tent up! And I think I'm managing to post a comment...you're right, I didn't click on "comments" before.
ReplyDeleteOkay Kristina - is it really the camping or the fantastic Orla tent? You can tell us...
ReplyDeleteThat tent looks perfect for Glastonbury. On second thoughts - if you are afraid of dirt - maybe not Glastonbury.
ReplyDeleteIf you want the name of an awesome camp-site in Cornwall just let me know...
Lovely tent, and as for s'mores - yuuuum!
ReplyDeleteThat is a really funky - in a good way - looking tent. Ours is just plain army green. That one looks much more fun.
