After yesterday's battering we bit the bullet 2 ops off all afternoon as completely soaked through paid all day. 3 x 4.5m with sides and grd bars. Came this morning ordered late yesterday afternoon. Will take pics when we use it which could be Thursday looking at the forecast 😏
Gala Tents are good stuff. Folks use them for weekly farmers markets. We have a 3m x 3m one for work. On our second as the first one blew away and died despite being fully weighted on all 4 legs with proper cast weights, and having all the sides fitted and zipped up. Great things, but no bloody good in windy weather.

'sposed to stop about 12 ..... doesn't look much like it will here ATM ..... looks set for the day ... a sunny afternoon is wildly optimistic on the met office's part IMHDO ... I remain to be proven wrong - and look forward to being so :giggle:
It did stop about 1 but fairplay shite

Must be one of worst Christmases , had an hour or so respite at midday that I bombed some beech rings up. But feeling a bit shite so curled up by the fire watching stuff is the plan now.

Sideways rain that's getting in places I've never seen 🤬

Some wind down here- just tried to sheet up a digger that's out of commission atm, gave up and just did the seat and and joysticks.
Landlord text me this morning, the sheeting on his work in progress swimming pool has done a runner, can I sort it out? So that's tomorrow mornings activity then...

Well I made it down the road and back today, was a sunny day ☺️ although falling out my bed at half 4 this morning to get a jump on the day was a real thought 😵‍💫 but at least I got the job jobbed and home in good time
