thanks Miranda, sorry to sound a bit censorious there.
suezen Jul 9, 2007:
Thanks Miranda
No problem
Miranda Joubioux (X) (asker) Jul 9, 2007:
I actually closed the question at the same time as Graham gave his answer (which I did not see). I felt a bit silly, since the answer was readily available on the web. But for the glossary, I am of course willing to go with Graham's answer.
Martin, is quite right, I shouldn't have closed my question, but I was half afraid of being told that I should have looked little harder.
Martin Cassell Jul 9, 2007:
... on the other hand I understand you might not want to let contributors keep adding answers when no points going to be awarded. Still, I think the glossary shouldn't be deprived: and like the others I'd be curious to know what you went with.
Martin Cassell Jul 9, 2007:
An observation: there is nothing that forces you, as an asker, to close a question simply because you have "gone to press" with a particular option or had an answer from your client. The term - and a range of translations - may be useful to others ...
suezen Jul 9, 2007:
hello Miranda
could you possibly give us the answer you found please for the glossaries?
Many thanks

personally I'd call it a tent...
Peer comment(s):

agree Martin Cassell : stick with "canvas bungalows": this is what many campsites offer. they're comfortable enough as long as the weather stays dry ... // there you go, I think you should "glossarise" this

thanks Martin looks like Miranda has found the answer however it might be worthwhile sticking it in the glossary
agree Claire Cox : I was going to say yes, or luxury tent, when I realised the question had already been closed - I do wish people wouldn't do that!
