I've got a british army tarp that I bought about 6 years ago for a tenner. I've given it alot of use and it's still tip top.

They are built to last.

Got one from DD Hammocks (the large one) great for covering the tent and having an area to cook etc, do your self a favour and get a sleeve (possibly 2) for the tarp, you normally use them on the Hammocks, makes setting up much simpler.

The Eurohike Tarp kit from Millets/Blacks is quite good, it comes with poles and has good coverage.

What,s the flag behind the tent ?

stephen.stallebrass · 12-09-11, 08:48

I'm glad you asked. Its a flag of The Flying Spaghetti Monster it's the deity of the parody religion The Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster or Pastafarianism. I've been touched by his noodly appendage. Here's a summary of Pastafarianism: The FSM is made up of spaghetti and meatballs, its balls are much bigger than all the other god(s). It has the only heaven in town with a beer volcano and a stripper factory. The FSM created the universe after drinking heavily. Pirates are divine and their image as thieves is misinformation, they were actually peace-loving explorers. Furthermore global warming, earthquakes, hurricanes, and other natural disasters are a direct effect of the shrinking numbers of pirates. Arggghhhh me mateys! Every Friday is a holy day. For more information read The Gospel of The Flying Spaghetti Monster and visit the fourm. Why not try it out for for 30 days, if you don't like it, your old religion will most likely take you back.

Decathlon used to do a good tarp kit, the new camping kit should be in soon I'll check if they have them this years range.

I sent back both decathlon tarps, the poles were very cheap, one set were too snug and the other too loose.
