From what I have heard about Land Rovers , they spend quite a lot of time being towed anyway!!

If you can find something solid enough to attach the rope to. ;)

It's worth shopping around, I got an Isabella awning from from the Isabella stand at the NEC a couple of years ago, they were selling off the old models for half price.

You are right there....if you wait till near the end of the show, they almost give them away....caravans too. A lot of it is so they don't have to take the stuff away....and also one-upmanship on other dealers on how many items/vans are sold at the show. We got loads of stuff at Earls Court show a few years ago. Good job we had friends with us, was a laugh getting it back via the tube ;D ;D
The friend with us bought one of those small Romahome motorhome things....got it for a stupid price, and the stuff they gave him as part of the bargain was beyond belief. Pity we could not drive it away, it would have solved our transport problems ;D

Hi all

Decided to get a porch awning for the winter months....pays to shop around. Got this 2013 Dorema Quattro from Jeff Bowen Awnings on the web, delivered free and £44 cheaper than any of the local stockists. Ordered last monday, delivered here on Wednesday.







I know this will amuse a few, but was in reception half hour ago, talking about risk assesment and H & S. When I came out, I looked the wrong way, and fell arris over head into a big flower tub.
Swmbo wet herself....just hope they never saw in reception :(
porch awning no good for us . never get all my stuff in it .got a 3mtr wide one for mine :y

Believe it or not...that one is 2.75mtr wide by 2.0mtr deep.
We use a full size awning in the better weather, which is a size 16 1025-1050
The porch awning is handy for just me and swmbo during the winter months. :y
