So, we're now the Fly Creek experts. If we wanted a warmer tent, like a 4-season thing that isn't stupid heavy where would you look? I like the idea of a single skin one for faster setup/teardown in the rain but do they have enough breathability to not fill with condensation? Looking at MSR, BigAgnes and Lightwave kinda stuff and not that crazy £1k+ shit for going up mountains. Also would like a little more room and in particular a larger vestibule for kit and/or cooking within/under. 2 entrances nice to have too.

Yeah, those expensive bastards were the ones I was thinking of. I bet it was still expensive off ebay though, right?

I guess I'll keep an eye on ebay and marketplace stuff and see what comes up. There's no rush for this but we've now tasted some miserable camping in Scotland and want some even colder, wetter camping in Scotland over winter. Or at least a tent that will go up quicker and be a bit warmer than the Fly Creek with a bit more room for kit/cooking.
