What do you need a tent for? after reading your posts on -7 degree observing sessions, this time of year should feel positively tropical to you--Just sleep under the stars.

Good luck with the new tent. Keep them pooches away.
I have had 2 inquisitive horses get in though an open gate and walk all over the site I usually put my scope. It is going to make leveling the scpoe a bit more tricky. Not that it matters much at present with
ALL THIS CLOUD!

hey, it could have been worse. You could have not aired the tent and had the dogs attack the tent with you in it! I would have used the dog's hides to mend the tent if that happenned to me.

Hey Ken, you didn't kick your dogs all the way to my house did you?
I got home from work yesterday only to find my bedroom curtains shredded and ripped to bits. I blamed my ferral cat, but now I am thinking, "ruddy Ken's dogs", how did they get in.

Good luck with your new tent, maybe spray it with citrus or something to keep them away.

There must be something in the air!!!
Pet pheromones must have gone bivwark. It could turn out to be the making of a good B-flick by Hitchcock. Pets around the world going gar gar and attacking inanimate objects, ooooooooooooo, better watch the undies on the line.

Oh my god, nightstalker, those birds are really strong so your knickers must be huge Whaaaaaaaahahahahahahaha
And as for your laughing wife, my dad would of said to her "your as useful as a fart in a wind sock"

In my mind I picture a poor persons face, when, walking one day this huge pair of draws lands on their head, as the bird decides "this blanket is too large for the nest and it will smother my babies", whaaaaaaaahahahahaha, sorry nightstalker the picture of a bird knicking knickers is just tooooo funny.
