Hi, I haven’t been up that way in a long time, we had a narrow boat hols when it was good and cheap ago and crossed the aqueduct. I must have been about 10, so over 40 years ago! That was an awesome way to start a holiday. Can’t remember the name of the boatyard now, but my mum taught me it wasn’t ’langollen’ but ‘khallang-goth-len’.
How long have you been living in the bell tent? It’s looking remarkably clean and tidy…well, at the moment, but you’re in Wales.
A week away at The Lakes in an Oztent and I reckon a big awning that can be tucked down out front is essential for anywhere wet or longer than a few days. Just for boots and the transition from mud and wet to clean and dry. We use a DD 3x3 tarp and a couple of collapsible poles, if we used the tent more I’d get a full on canvas job for it, but the DD dries easily unlike the canvas.
Ours, in the avatar pic, was our lockdown garden retreat last year, and it worked really well if we just wanted a night not stuck indoors like so many people were. Lovely tents, I’d not have anything else.
