Advantages: Good Size, Brilliant Value, High Quality, Sturdy, Easy to Erect Disadvantages: None that I can think of!
I purchased my Vango Venture 500 towards the end of 2006. For the bargain price of £85.00 and I haven't looked back since! Numourus camping trips have bee happily spent in this tent and it will see many more!
The frame consists of 2 large poles crossing over to make the main dome, and a 3rd smaller pole creating a loop for the porch area. Once erect, with all pegs and guide ropes in place the tent is extremely strong and stable. We have camped in strong winds and strong rain and it has stood strong throughout.
As long as there are two of you, erecting the tent is a swift and easy process. Funnily enough you tend to erect it faster when its raining! And packing it back into the bag is an art the first time but you tend to remember how to do it from then onwards and it's easy enough. When packaged, the tent is relatively heavy ...

Advantages: An excellent moisturiser Disadvantages: None
Astral moisturising cream seems to have been on the chemists shelves since the wheel was invented! Then I take a look and find out that it was first launched in 1950, but the creams formula has remained unchanged in all those years.
I have been buying Astral cream for light years but I can only ever remember it being in the aqua blue plastic tub.
There used to be an Astral soap on the market too but I haven't seen that about for ages now.
Astral cream contains glycerin, lanolin and perfume and it has been dermatologically tested and is not tested on any animals.
You can buy Astral cream in three different sized pots, 50ml, 200ml and 500ml. The cream can be used as an all over moisturiser.
I suppose that many women might look on Astral cream as being a bit old fashioned, the creams that appear in the magazines, newspapers ...
