Title: Tent for Easkey
Post by: Cli on May 27, 2009, 00:18:41: Hi all,

My tent blew away at my first Easkey (not really, just a better story.... it leaks). Does anyone have a tent I could borrow for the weekend please?

Otherwise.... Fuzzy, do you fancy taking tenants again?!!

Cli ;D

Beware! Just spent two nights in Galway in a â‚¬40 tent. Kept the rain out perfectly, but we spent the night drinking beer holding the side of the tent upright with our feet thanks to the wind! It was an amusing night. We couldn't afford the salthill campsite so we pitched next to a circus tent and pretended to be part of the troupe.

Got one of these today, no idea what the build quality is like but it's got a cow patter on it!

Found a picture!

Looks like it's going to be an interesting weekend.
