My new home arrived just before I headed up to Scotland last month. I love the Hilleberg Tarra that Barry and I used in Tierra del Fuego. It withstood the strong winds there brilliantly, but it’s too big for one person so I was delighted that Hilleberg sent me a Soulo tent for when it’s just me inside. When it’s dry, you can put the inner and outer up together – but when it rains (on those rare occasions during the British Summer), I can put the outer up first & clip the inner into it from underneath, keeping it nice & dry. The tent was comfy & well thought out with a big vestibule for wet kayaking kit! It’s totally free standing and only weighs just over 2kg. Now I just need another excuse to go camping….

Perhaps I should explain that the jumping photos were the result of Sarah Outen saying “There’s a rainbow behind the tent…. Do something interesting!?’ I tried!
