A few years back I was camping at Glen Rosa , on Arran the wind got so bad that every ones tent was flattened and I had a Force Ten mountain tent. Power lines were down , trees were down , the ferry was damaged at it's moorings , the bow door wouldn't open . Come to think of it , that was easter. But , look on the bright side , it's a lot easier to pack up your gear when most of it has blown away AND , you get the joy of shopping for and choosing new kit .
