May seem a silly question, but are you expecting bad weather or is it just pessimism? B)

I have been labelled in the past on here as the RAIN MAN,(ask the Woosie's) indeed six times away this year and only two dry days one being last Saturday when I put the awning up. Actually had sunshine as well.

On the top poles where the clamping arm is, pop a jubilee clip on the narrow pole and tighten it, it will stop the pole moving inwards in high winds and allowing the roof to become [strike]limp[/strike] slack .....

Just needs Adolf the warden now to come and tell you the awning is too far over. :cheer:

My wife just said your dog looks placid. I said you had probably screwed it down just in case.

Have you been in touch with the planning dept, thats a permanent structure.

NO GOOD SECURING ALL THE BOTTOM OF THE AWNING IF THE ROOF BARS GIVE UP!!!!!!GRRR

Arrived on site on Friday to find this

So secured the [strike]crap[/strike]Kwik lock jouints with jubilee clips. (Sir sprockets idea) on the Sunday and That was after spending nearly an hour in the sites workshop trying to straighten three major bent poles!!

This was not all of my event full weekend, will start another thread on that one!!!

Oh dear Kev and you were looking for some R & R
I hope the jubilee clips didn't come off the cars radiator hmy: :dry:
At least the canvas didn't tear and the poles were straightrened. Enjoy :cheer:
