Re: why you should tarp
Very good, particularly the bit about when you've showed off your tarp technique to others you commit yourself to always tarping.
That said, and being completely objective (i.e. from the perspective of someone who really likes kipping under a flat tarp) it does paint it slightly more rubbish than it is, provided you use a pole, proper guys and pegs and practice in your garden first.
Oh and no mention of slugs

Tongue firmly in cheek there. Dead right about the peeing though!
