Hi, I would like a large canvas framed tent for my garden. It must be big enough to stand in and fit a table in, and be waterproof/windproof enough to survive our weather as it'll be erected perminantly.

Something like this would be great:http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/RACLET-FA...re_HikingCamping_Tents_JN&hash=item2a2128d0fa I just live too far away to collect from here.

And something liek this would be perfect:http://www.google.co.uk/imgres?um=1...1&start=25&ndsp=16&ved=1t:429,r:12,s:25,i:191 but they sell for quite a bit on ebay.


So, has anyone got something that may be suitable for me? feel free to message me if you do and we can discuss a deal!

thanks :)

Hey Samon,

I don't know where you're based, but I was in Anchor Supplies in Ripley yesterday and they had a load of ex MOD on display. I think they have a website now too. I was so overwhelmed when I was in there I ended up buying nothing.

Cheers, Michael.

I'm near Bristol, so a bit far from there I think! did they have anything like the land rover one by any chance?

Drat, I just sold one

Ill keep my eyes open.


ah thank you!


They seem to sell for a moderate price but so few people deliver and I don't drive, so it's a bit of a bugger really. I'd also really like to get one soon..

thank you for such a kind offer :)

I just had a check on anchor supplies website and they have that really cool land rover tent! but it's just soo expensive! It's going to be used a shed, for me to work in and shoot out of in bad weather. I am currently using frames and cheap tarps, but the cheap tarps aren't hoplding up to the mega gale and uber rain!

And I can't afford a metal shed and don't want to buy a cheaper wooden one that'll just be poorly made.

I have a Mykonos 8 frame tent without bedrooms available,only trouble is I'm up North and you're down South!
Suppose it wouldn't cost a lot to courier,let me know if you're interested.

Ah that looks very nice! but I think it might be a bit large tbh mate, and the courier service will cost a few coppers!

that being said I think the ideal size would be 9'x9' give or take. thanks for the offer though bud!
