My awning has arrived
Big Big thanks to DiscoDunc for sorting this out for me and getting it in time for Billing .
Bag to hold poles
I have 2 main awnings ( one for each side )..and 1 drop down one ( zipped in place ) . Drop down one it to sheild the cooker if the weathers bad .
Random shots ..obviously its strung up with bungy ropes at the moment so it dosent look perfect ...and its blowing a gail here
I have been waiting for some orange guy ropes for over a week ..only to be informed they cant get them now . Any one know any were i can get some ..or any one have any going cheap .
Oh ..any body with an oz tent ? what colour are the guy ropes on them ?G4 Gone ...but not forgotten

You got a good fire extinguisher Wiggs? Using the awning that close to the cooker might lead to a little more orange colour coordination than is desirable.I know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.

Do you think thats a mistake ? 500cm seems awfully small for a guy rope
Yes fire extinguiser fitted ....the awning can slide out either way ..i will obviously slide it further away from the kitchen ...as said it was only put up temp G4 Gone ...but not forgotten

Think they mean 5meters?
Until July 21st if you spend £50+ (yes I know its a lot of guy ropes), use code July5 to get £5 off, July15 for £15 spending £125+ or £50 off spending £250+ with July50 at gooutdoors.
Super wet & windy everywhere last 2 days in my experience!
If you slide awning towards cooker end you can always peg the side away from the cooker anyway I would have thought (in a non driveway test experience).
