I used one of his Tarptents on this year's TGOC and other than the fact that it was a tad draughty (and therefore cold) at times didn't have a problem; I've used it several times before in Scotland quite happily. The shelter didn't really need any tweaks, just my sleeping bag needed a windproof barrier (to stop the wind from the outside getting in, not vice-versa!). Best shelter designer out there in my opinion. I'm sorry I won't be on the TGOC in 2010 as I'd love to meet Henry again... maybe we'll sneak up to Braemar with the 'van!

The time to worry is when such businesses are passed on/bought out and then run by accountants!
