Hey guys - yes I know exactly what you mean - all problems I initially had with it until I took it out and just saw how easy it went up, with everything inside.
I'm genuinly not concerned about getting it wet on the trip to Russia more than a couple of times at most, and as I'm crossing fingers that wet will be the exception I'm hoping my little shelter idea (tarp, bike, poles ;-)) will provide somewhere dry where I can sit and keep the worst of the weather off the tent.
I've still got loads of tents to test before I go, but I do have to say how impressed, and surprised I was by the Swag bag - I think it must be a little like Marmite - you either love it or hate it!
Andrew - yes I take your point about how long you're on the road - if things go to plan we'll get to see how it works over four weeks in most of Western Europe and Russia.... (double swag... I don't think Mrs C will like that very much - she much prefers these things she calls 'hotels' I don't understand the concept myself but there you go!)
