hi, we are new to the caravan world and wondered what the best way to put up an awning was? any top tips?
Lisa have you been talking to my wife???Emma
I can't give you any tips on the actual erection of an awning. (Sorry for that word). However I would advise:
Smile sweetly at your partner when he swears
When he asks for a particular pole, pretend you know what he's talking about and search for it
When he asks 'does that look level?' Say yes even if it doesn't (you can always blame a gust of wind later)
Don't moan that your arms are aching like mad
If all else fails, put cotton wool in your ears and just nod now and again.

Hi Kevin, yes I saw your wife the other week in Tesco. She said you are as bad as my husband. (I'm an expert at looking like I understand what he's talking about, same as when I arrive on site, the warden gives me a map and says 'follow the road round till you reach block B, etc etc and your pitch is there on the left......'. I don't know why but I just nod, get back in the car and think 'where on earth is my pitch'. I then find it easier to just keep driving round the campsite, van in tow until I eventually stumble upon the pitch!Emma

Why don't we ask them to repeat it? i've no IDEA- i just never would...Hi Kevin, yes I saw your wife the other week in Tesco. She said you are as bad as my husband.
