Glasto Tent Check


Guest Grateful Ghoul

Recommended Posts

Last year I aired my old tent on the Sunday, realised it was knackered. Ordered a new one from Millets on the Monday with next day delivery, it turned up on Tuesday.

You'll be fine!

Finally put mine up this evening in our tiny shoebox flat. It looks ok, barring some gaffer tape marks after I foolishly used it to attach survival blankets last year.

We set ours up yesterday ... Still had the Glasto mud smell :-)

I've learnt to check the tent the hard way. In 2009 I bought a big two room six person tent for three of us from eBay. I thought it would be brilliant for the whole group (6 girls) because it had a living area in the middle so we could get out of the rain. Well, after trekking for four hours we finally found a spot to set up home. We started with my tent as it was the biggest, got everything out ... But shite, no poles!! I couldn't believe it! I was told by a few people to check the tent before so after nagging from the third person, I opened the bag, saw that it had never been taken out of the bag because it was perfectly folded, and zipped it back up again. I was so thankful millets have shops on site, and so were the girls sleeping in my tent! Although three of us squashed in a three man tent wasn't that cosey lol. Mistake, learnt from!

Nothing wrong at all being attached to a tent, I was the same with my big 8 man tent til it died at Glastonbury 09, and if my chair which has been to every festival I have ever been to ever dies I will be inconsolable lol
