Just about! Can't bend your legs, no point even trying to get changed.

I love the fact mine is a '2 man tent' but barely has room for me to lay down in it with a rucksack. It's like, 2 man, yeah, but what the hell are you supposed to do with your bags and stuff? Leave 'em outside to get rained on / stolen or whatever?

With mine, once the tent, sleeping bag and cooking gear have been removed, an 85L bag becomes just small enough to 'hug' inside the tent (it's pushed against one side, my shoulder against the other). No way is it going to fit past my waist though. Does make things a little snug. I can leave it outside though, as my gear isn't really used on campsites.

I presume with your 2 man, both had better be pretty good mates!

^^^ You guys should man up and sleep on your rucksack

I was forced to go camping all the time as a child. My parents used to have a stall and do markets and fayres, so most weekends were spent in a tent or caravan. As a result I detest it.

My sister and I went to V fest and made sure we had a hotel for the night. So while everyone else was getting rained on after the Foos, we were in a nice warm room with a tv and the most enormous bath I've ever seen!

Camping, meh.

I've just had a new tent as a birthday prezzie - my old eurohike 2man has braved the world and festivals alike for 9 years (still in tiptop condition) and I sent it off to the relief appeal for the typhoon in malaisia some time ago.

My new tent I hunted high & low for : it had to be right - so I invested in a Vango

It's a 2 man tent but with an additional 'porch' area out front big enough to store my bike and all other ging-gang-googlie bits & bobs!
