It arrived today courtesy of a reliable purchase on ebay.

Vango Diablo 400 ... bargain

The inner tent (put up on my own as rachel and annabelle had urgent tv to watch in the shape of neighbours....)

Annabelle trying it for size:

Its hard work watching:

Annabelle has picked her bedroom:

This is the 'baby' version:

I want to be a tree:

Even i can stand up in it:

Arghh - there's someone at the window !!

Lots of string for Nige to trip over while he is throwing up:

Finished (ish)

Annabelle wants to sleep in it tonight

Yeah - we have a week in that - really looking forward to it.

The inside is big enough for a table and chairs, plus has lots of handy pockets and hangers for drying stuff.

Way cheaper than staying in the hotel - works out at about 30 euros a day for us rather than

Looks pretty substantial Dunc, should cope with the Eifel weather.

Looks like a similar size to our tent Dunc. We call it the "Telly Tubbie" house lol. Seriously though it is so much better when you can sit around the table inside the tent and you can actually get dressed etc without having to be a contortionist

:lol:

Yeah - standing up in it is superb after years of trying to get dressed sitting down.
