I want this

Bushwalking gear and paraphernalia. Electronic gadget topics (inc. GPS, PLB, chargers) belong in the 'Techno Babble' sub-forum.
Forum rules
TIP: The online Bushwalk Inventory System can help bushwalkers with a variety of bushwalk planning tasks, including: Manage which items they take bushwalking so that they do not forget anything they might need, plan meals for their walks, and automatically compile food/fuel shopping lists (lists of consumables) required to make and cook the meals for each walk. It is particularly useful for planning for groups who share food or other items, but is also useful for individual walkers.

Glamping, my beloved will come camping only if I put in a proper queen sized Sealy and a wooden floor, and of course I would need Moroccan style wall and ceiling hangings to match

I have no idea about quality, price looks appealing

I've actually found my tents OSM; I just need to find the money to buy them now.
The winning bidder on the small eBay unit backed out and I just got a second chance offer and I have found a huge and very strong wall tent in H/D canvas that is reasonably priced.
I may have to sell some speaker stuff as well as camping and B/W gear; tho the market for DIY speakers isn't great at the moment.
Yep the Boss may come if I can get a queen sized bed and central heating fitted, I do like circus tents tho, especially when decorated with woollen rugs and silk wall hangings [ and chandeliers - mustn't forget the chandeliers ] and red tents are better of course
