Always fun watching other people putting up a tent , and no arguing 👍thanks for the video 🚐👍
@@ericlacey6593 No arguing on camera to be precise 😂😂 , we often watch caravaners argue putting up an awning on arrival , we get the popcorn out and watch 😂
thanks Eric take care
Nice to have some extra storage, we do tend to use our awning as we rarely move the van once pitched.
Hi ya Mike and Kirsty.
This is my second comment on this vlog. So you might get this twice if the other one comes through.🤔
You two never fail to make us laugh.
I knew what was going to happen with that peg.😅
Kirsty has got it made, when you upset her Mike I know where she is going to send you, if you lucky she might give you a chair to sit in.😊
Thanks for the great vlog guys.
Thumbs up thumped 👍
....Pete and Su....
Hi pete & sue yep she’ll send me straight to the tent if i upset her 😂…. i’ll take the dog with me though, the tent looked so easy to put up on their website , always does though dont it 😂
oh well i’m sure we’ll get used to it … maybe 🤔
thanks again for watching guys
take care of
Mike & Kirsty 👍😀
I've had a bad day but you two have put a smile on my face, loved this video 👏👏
thats nice to know thanks Janice & hope you have a better day tomorrow 👍😀
@TheFrenchiesMotorhomechannel thanks happy caravaning 😁
Wow; good, but expensive 😮
Great video again 👌💙❤️
Thank you! 😃
Hi guys. Great idea using a shower tent,never thought of that we have just bought a drive away awning to give us more storage, it will be ok on longer stays but wont use it for weekends away. Might look into one of those you have.
Hope your both ok xx
Hi julie we are fine thank you , We loved our drive away awning we had a few years back but never stayed anywhere long enough to put it up as you say , we can now put this one up in less than 3 mins! it took us a few attempts but so glad we bought it , nice and light
thanks for watching and happy camping 😀
Hi Mike and Kirsty. That's a nice looking thing with useful space.
We've been using a simple pop up tent for several years. It takes less than 5 minutes to erect and is so useful for storing all our stuff, like chairs, watering can, table etc. As I mentioned to you before, we're now taking our car as well which opens up opportunities to get out and about without relying on bus travel.
Nice to see you enjoying some decent weather, which has been scarce this summer!
Which site were you at? It looked very nice.
Cheers. Rob
Hi rob we are now putting it up much quicker and finding it very useful especially when its too wet & windy to have the canopy rolled out to keep stuff dry , only nuisance is packing it away wet , but most of the water shakes off , its great taking a car i think , as you say it opens up so many more opportunities , oh the site was nelsons patch in walcott , north norfolk , a regular of ours as its just an hour away
thanks again for watching & have a lovely weekend
Haha that was entertaining Mike and Kirsty. Nice little utility tent but quite pricey. I do believe in the theory of buy well and buy once so with that in mind, it’s probably worth it based on the quality and design. I would definitely invest in some storm straps for you canopy on the van, it’s expensive to repair or replace the arms as I found out on Smirf 🙂 Safe travels 👍🏻🚐💙 Trev n Sue
@@PoshcatsCamping Hi Trev & Sue yes agree with the buy well buy once , hopefully will last us it serves a good purpose at least,
thanks guys have a good week
mike & kirsty 👍😀
Hi ya Mike and Kirsty.
Tell you what you never fail to make us laugh.
Soon as you started hammering that peg in knew what was going to happen.😅
Kirsty has got it made, when you upset her Mike you know where she is going to send you, she might even put a chair in there for you.😊
Thanks guys great vlog.
Thumbs up thumped 👍
....Pete and Su....
Really great to see you both smiling again after the rotten few months you've both had. Made me laugh as I'm as 'ham fisted' as you are 😂. Like you it takes the other half to sort it !! Take care both. All the very best. Regards VANESSA AND COLIN WELLS
Hi colin & Vanessa. We got there in the allbeit a bit wonky 😂 shouldn’t have attempted it in the wind really , well thats my excuse ! 😀
thanks again for watching
Mike & kirsty 👍
That vlog was entertaining enough but I wish I could have been on the next pitch with a comfy chair and a beer because I'm sure tha vlog was edited?it was funny anyway.😂😂😂❤❤
we hid behind the van so no one could watch 😂 i wish i’d have left the edited bits in Jim , it would have made for a funnier video 😂
thanks for watching
mike & kirsty
That’s spot on guys 👍,all instructions say 2 mins lol it’s like having nuts n bolts left !
You did alright putting it up and nice bit of kit 👍👍
Cheers
Sean
cheers sean so fiddly those things but got there in the end at least , thanks for watching
mike & kirsty 👍
Great idea, very useful, always good to have some outside storage. 👍
cheers paul we needed that extra storage especially when it rains and have to roll awning in
Nice storage idea giving more room in the van!👍
@@G.J..Journeys cheers graeme its definitely useful for us 👍
A fabulous idea 👏👏 and I’m glad you know what you are doing 😂
Thank you! 😊 😂
Morning guys great vid giggled all the way through it beware of anything that says “all you have to do” 🤣🤣🤣🤣 you could do with awning strap mate, and you defo wasn’t in the scouts 😊 good fun you guys you always bring a smile to my face, …. Pete🇫🇷
Hi pete glad it was entertaining 😂 as you saw we are not tent people at all , it looked so easy to do on their website 😂😂
We have put it up once more since that video and getting a bit faster its only taking us half an hour now 😂
cheers , have a good week 👍
mike & kirsty
Great to see you wave to us as we leave on camera, oh and Beryl the dog says hi to Zola
it was the first time we saw zola do a zoomy for a while when she met beryl , was great to see her happy 😃
Looks a great utility tent. Take care Gill
@@Wheres_wanda_wandering its a great little tent very happy with it take care
mike & kirsty
Mike how would you cope without Kirsty 😂😂you wouldn't we suspect, when you said the price we thought you was going to say double that, £149 is fair enough for that, a few goes and you'll have it up in no time, on saying that we'd love to be on the next pitch watching 🤣🤣🤣, handy for storing thing's, saves keep getting down pushing things under the van, anyway another enjoyable vlog keep them coming 👍.
i wished i’d kept the camera rolling we struggled to be honest and i felt a bit embarrassed , its a simple pop up tent but no we couldn’t get it right , it went up & stayed up in the end but just couldn’t get it to straighten up 😂 happy with the purchase though it seems well made
thanks again for watching & commenting 👍😀
It looks very good! Bit over priced I thought! As you said will come in handy! Guy rope pegs ideally should be put in roughly at 45 degree angle giving you a right angle 90' peg to Guy line, less chance of the peg being pulled straight out! The straighter the peg goes in, the easier it will be pulled out!
thanks for info , we’ve never used a tent before it was a bit of a learning curve, they make it look so easy on their website!
Ha 2 minutes , they lie 😂😂😂. Looks quite substantial though and we do like Colapz gear. Great site Nelson’s Patch . A bit of a lean in the shower no bad thing Mike , let’s the water drain away 😂. Kudos to you guys , not many channels could make a tent erection video interesting, but you have . Best wishes Helen and Martin
@@HelenandMartinsTreks thanks guys , love the tent now its been a few weeks , always visit the colapz stalls at the shows so much interesting stuff
take care both 👍😀
You need to have to door zipped closed to keep the shape, even if you just move it!
Hope you are both good!
Thanks for the tip!
Weren't meant to be funny Mike but that was entertaining mate! Your very fussy but we were the same couldn't have a crease in the awning!😄
they made it look so easy on their website . one person in 1 minute they claim. i suppose if you are used to tents its possible , not for us though 😂
thanks for watching
mike & kirsty
Nice vid Mike. Don't think you were in the boy scouts though!
@@michaeljohnson7009 definitely wasn’t 😂 kirsty seemed to know what she was doing though ! cheers mike 👍
That wore me out watching you put that utility tent up (only joking)
it wore me out too ! 😂
In on one was traci and 35 seconds later i got number two not that were are Nerds but sunday is our video day her in the kitchen and me in my art studio. It gives you more room but lose the wire pegs Have fun and crack on
@@barrywood5357 cheers barry thanks for watching 👍
😂😂😂
how is your wee dog doing without his pal?
not so good really , refusing to eat and she’s a different dog now , totally changed , sad to see , thanks for asking
@@TheFrenchiesMotorhomechannel so sorry to hear that .
No no no, Tents are for Hippies!
😂😂👍
Which "ship" pitch were you on? 😊 We're Irresistible in a fortnight...
@@PaulDevall dreadnaught , 13 … our fav is pitch 8 , cant remember the ship for 8 , think its hitchinbrook , have a great time 👍😀
Simply zero patience on anything Tent ⛺️ oriented,over to the wife ,take the dog walk,back it be up.
Don’t shower in the wind ,albeit it flys away and you there with your Brut 35 and a Scrunchie 🥱
😂😂👍 best advice kev , i’ll take the dog out next time , let her do it , they made it look so easy online on their website !
