An ongoing saga

For a little over a year I have been trying to get my tent poles fixed by a well known outdoor brand manufacturer.

Since the tent is "quite old" having been bought in 2008 they have been finding it hard to get hold of replacement poles.

I come back from holiday and find that they have been able to find a full set of poles for my tent; all shiny and new :)  Hopefully, these poles will last a bit longer than the last set, though I am not sure really.  I have ended up putting put up my tent inside the house to see if the poles are going to fit.
