Okay the zipper broke at the bearded theory festival last weekend and the groundsheet has a tear in the corner from the previous use. Both repairable of course but not sure its worth it for a fairly cheap tent thats had a few uses, good money after bad etc.

But current tent is this: http://www.lichfield-outdoor.co.uk/Tents/Strathy-4... and its no longer avaliable, but its the perfect festival tent! There is nothing else like it out there!

-small footprint to squeeze in small spots for when youre not first to arrive but with 2m height so you can actually sort of stand up
-simple one room, two pole, quick easy and light no faffing about, unlike the apartment complexes in canvas people turn up with
-two doors so you can get a bit of breeze through and the tents not a furnace, great when you want to chill out for an hour or two at midday in the sun

Dont want to spend a massive deal given its a tend for festivals. Anyone?
