Delta trial

[MussEd]

This was delivered a couple of weeks ago but an unexpected grandparent relief effort meant I've had a bit of spare time on my hands this afternoon. So rather than cleaning the bathroom or attacking the oven I had a go at putting up the Alpkit Delta I bought SH off the Singletrack classifieds a few weeks back.



As a complete tent novice I was pleasantly surprised how quickly I seemed to manage putting it up, and it's still standing now, an entire 20 minutes later. I know it's not the ultimate in tent design or technology but for £25 it'll do a novice like me....now trying to find a way to tighten up the inner....

Ps what this picture doesn't convey is the rank rotten smell at the end of the garden. There may be some sort of decaying animal up there somewhere - so a little touch of wilderness is added to anotherwise completely urban venture.

Pps just noticed the brown bin in the background-couldn't completely ignore my household obligations so I cut the grass.

I did read that before buying Satanorm - your words of wisdom helped me take a punt on this. Though when I was in the garden I couldn't remember what you said about angles of the guy lines! Will read up again before I head out for real...
