Re: Awnings?

I am Interested Interested in the 4x4 pull out awnings, always ignored the fiamma ones as anything above a slight breeze causes issues, wondered if these would be better, sometimes it's nice to have cover for wet days when I can't be bothered to erect the stand alone one.

Re: table

I use a folding drum stool stand for legs, put the table where you fancy, a lot better engineered than the fiamma tripods.

Re: Tailgate door seal

Or the two rival pound shops next to one another on a high street, one store was competing by lowering an item to 90p, the manager from the store next door sent someone to purchase all of the 90p items and then sold them in his store for a £1
