Default Pitting

Wat does everybody use as a shelter to pit in? gazebo is going to be high on the list me thinks, but.... which one? I am after a decent (but not alot of money) pit space. Any recommendations please?

Damn right you are, i reckon it's a bargain

Easy to set up on your own if you've got no mates to race with too

i use & have done for a long time, one of these

http://www.galatent.co.uk/more_detai...ItemCode=07302

sides are available fairly cheaply & the roof is totally waterproof
every spare is available should it blow in during high wind etc
and they are sensibly priced so repairing rather than replacing is feasible

if you'd asked for the link a month ago they were only £180 in this size!
everything gets more expensive when the sun comes out
just look how much all camping gear has gone up in the last few weeks!

I am sure they are the fish's furry bits when it comes to quality etc, but a little out of my price range am afraid... thanks anyway.
