Just the same as U.K tents, sewn in ground sheets, full fly screens etc. We brought ours & have upgraded to one that Deb can stand up in to put her knickers on:eek: .................................................. .................................................. .........................I'll be in so much trouble for that
Our mates said the only difference was that there were not as many ventilation holes in their UK one!!??!?!? Not sure if they winding us up or not!!:rofl::rofl: |

do you think we should bring our tent with us or are tents constructed differently over there (eg to cope with heat, animals etc...)?

Valid question which I'm interested in reading answer to, because we were considering buying a UK tent, but questioned whether in Aus you'd need it to be more bug proof, heat resistent and ventilated? What are the top selling family tents in Aus? Any tent experts here?

My personal take on it, is wait till you get here there are always good deals about and depending where you camp there are places where the flys can piss you off soooooo much (Especially ANYWHERE on the Great Ocean Road) I would have to have one with fly nets on it!! But guess you could buy some netting and attach it when you got here!! So guess it doesn matter really!! :rofl: |

I honestly cannot see the appeal at all of camping. Where's the break? You still have to wash, cook, clean, pack the kitchen sink to take with you. No thanks, would rather stay at home and save for a decent holiday :eek:
