Sun Shades: Nice or hideous?

[morningpaper]

I can't decide

Crocus have some on special offer

You know the sort of thing - big sail over yer beer garden

What do we think?

I am getting one next week for my patio

[excited]

It has 4 points, anchored to house over to garage.

[happy sigh]

I can't have a gazebo, hardly any level ground in my garden so please don't all say they are bleurgh !!

I think they can look v. cool. Do you leave them up all the time? It would be beyond annoying to have to put it up and down all the time.

Erect in April, take down in October and store for winter - that's the plan anyhoo.

Ah, perfect!

what colour boys? Have you seen the bargains in Crocus?

I'm concerned about wind resistance

How does it not flap, or take the house off down the street?

I mean it is a SAIL

I want a cream one, was going to get one just from random internet supplier.

I will have a look at crocus and report back forthwith

You secure to building via a plate and heavy duty bolts

[crosses fingers and hopes for balmy weather]

here are Crosus's - some are only 32.99

Cor, they are bargainous

TVM

they really ARE bargainous aren't they?

I am tempted myself

Sails are cool, in my humble opinion. The sun shades which fold down from above the window a la Torquay hotel - which at first was what I thought you meant - not so.

I like the sail-y ones

I thought you meant the awning ones advertised by that old police bloke with the dog

there are some cheap ones here too - nice orange one.

lol yes I meant to write SAIL SHADES in the subject

I am in Sail Heaven

Sail porn
