I have a Twin Turbo 240 BT, I think the pics are in the camping section of the forum. The poles are "built" into the tent, so one just pegs the base and pulls the tent up, therefore 2 minutes and it sleeps 5 easily, but it's long in the tooth, so I need a replacement, but your current setup is my dream

If I was going to buy another tent, I'd probably get an OzTent, they go up in a few minutes too. I like the trailer because it gets us off the ground which is a big plus when we get to camp where there are no fences.

Fortunately a lack of big game does not affect you as you simply switch to micro game.
Brilliant shots all round.
Just love your tent/trailer set up - is it a single or double sleeper?
Just hope you do not go sleep walking at night.

That's the idea, macro game outside the camps, micro game inside the camps!
The sleeping platform is the same size as a double bed, we sleep along the length of the trailer.
luckily We are not somnambulists. The idea of falling out worried me a bit but we keep the door zipped up so I can't fall out even if I wanted to.
here's a pic I took when we tested out the trailer in Pilanesberg.

Depends on how much wind there is!

BluTuna and Stargazer
Wowowowow, delightful photos again
The lions look very hungry and thin
The beautiful moth is
Grammodora nigrolineata Black Lined Eggar. The Spiny ant I had identified already for you.
Looks like you enjoy camping, who provides the meals? Bot much time, i guess when you are out and about microgaming
Interesting pipe nest

Thank you Toko, glad you found my TT, and thanks for the ID
We usually braai, which means I do the cooking and SG does the prep - much as we do at home except I don't have to light a fire there.
