Anyway, I now know how far apart the trees must be, and how much trouble it is to hang the hammock. I am sure it will get better over time, and I have identified that I need to modify the stock straps for something longer and less fiddly. I knew that already, but I needed to see how things were so I could see what was required. I also ended up lying with the zipper on the left, which felt quite appropriate. Maybe I should have tried the other way too.
Oh, and it was very comfortable.
Thanks to all who have contributed to the forum. I am happy with my decision, but I still have a lot to learn (and a lot of fun to have).
