NOW GONE


Recommended Posts

We've got an Outwell Nevada 4 family tent we bought in 2009. It's the one that came with the "kids room" inner. Sleeps 4 in 2 inner "rooms", very large porch / living area. It's roomy but not huge and is easy to put up.


It's green but the version Outwell now do is blue http://www.ukcampsite.co.uk/tents/p/Outwell-Nevada-4/1066. When we bought it cost about ?200 plus the cost of the footprint and now they sell for between ?270 and ?350 - ie, it's pretty decent quality.


We haven't used it for a couple of years as we were given a dutch canvas tent by a friend so the tent's been stored in the loft. We're having a clear out and I want to get rid of the tent.


It's got all the bits and poles, pegs and instructions as well as a footprint we bought separately. It's not pristine and there are some small patches of mould / mildew on the mesh which, if I were to use the tent again myself, I'd treat with Milton's fluid.


Is there anyone who'd like it for a nominal sum (?50?) Might suit a family toying with buying a tent and wanting to try it out. Might suit someone on a low budget.


If we were to take it to the tip we'd fillet out the pegs which are good quality (such as is possible with tent pegs!) and the footprint.


Anyway - make me an offer.

    • But all those examples sell a wide variety of things,  and mostly they are well spread out along Lordship Lane. These two shops both sell one very specific thing, albeit in different flavours, and are just across the road from each other. I don't think you can compare the distribution of shops in Roman times to the distribution of shops in Lordship Lane in the twenty first century. Well, you can, but it doesn't feel very appropriate. Haa anybody asked the first shop how they feel? Are they happy about the "healthy competition" ?
    • ED is included in the 17 August closure set (or just possibly 15 August, depending on which part of the page you trust more) listed at https://metro.co.uk/2025/07/25/full-list-25-poundland-stores-confirmed-close-august-23753048/. Here incidentally are some snippets from their annual reports, at https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/02495645/filing-history. 2022: " during the period we opened 41 stores and closed 43 loss-making/under-performing stores.  At the period-end we were trading from 821 stores in the UK, IoM and ROI. ... "We renogotiated 82 leases in the year, saving on average 45% versus the prior lease agreement..." 2023: "We also continued to improve our market footprint through sourcing better store locations, opening 53 and closing 51 stores during the year." 2024:  "The ex-Wilco stores acquired in the prior year have formed a core part of this strategy to expand our store network.  We favour quality over quantity and during the period we opened 84 stores and closed 71 loss-making/under-performing ones."
    • Ha! After I posted this, I thought of lots more examples. Screwfix and the hardware store? Mrs Robinson and Jumping Bean? Chemists, plant shops, hairdressers...  the list goes on... it's good to have healthy competition  Ooooh! Two cheese shops
    • You've got a point.  Thinking Leyland and Screwfix too but this felt different.
