I bought a Gelert Taal4 from another shop, but Halfrauds sell the same brand, cracking tent and will put up with a bit of wind

I used to go to Shell Island, but can become crowded and noisy at times, great beach though.

If J4CKO's posts are at all accurate I'd recommend you buy a canary for the tent... it may save the lives of your wife and children!!

What about all the other stuff, stove, pans, cuttlery, plates, torches, sleeping bags, cool box etc etc.

Your missus in a tent, do me a favour, that isnt going to happen.

Mine wants me to take the kids at some point, could practice in a field at her mums.
