Need Large square Parasols

[Katymac]

For an idea my dad has had for my garden shade

Any ideas?

TIA

do you have moseley trading near you?

No idea - are they on the internet?

Do you like these?

I won't need Planning permission for them

They can come down each night

The neighbours can't (really) complain about a brolly

Perfect solution...must check about rain

they are lovely but expensive, would you have somewhere to stor them? I expect they are v heavy

I think (from the site) they stay in situ

They are expensive - but no more so that an actual roof & no Planning Permission

i think your mindees must be very lucky you plough soi much back in ti the business

But it will improve my quality of life - we can't sit out in the summer as the sun is too strong & it's very hot in the conservatory

So perfect for then

They can't play out after the rain cos the lawn is too muddy and I hate mud inside

So perfect for then

I can't leave the door open for them to go in & out at will as there are steps - so the higer deck will be perfect for that

If it makes my life easier - then I'm all for it.....and anyway OFSTED think I'm outstanding and I need to live up to that

& I charge a lot....

Off to college

pity you are not in our locality is it norfolk you are

Yep that's me...rural norfolk

How about a shade sail ? But you'd need to have something to fix it onto. Also someone who will custom make them.

Jackieno - I'm a bit worried about getting that up and down all the time with the wind and rain etc

The umbrella thingie should just wind up & down (apparently....but we'll see)

Yes - it wasn't clear to me how that would work either. They look lovely, though. Quite fancy one in the garden myself, but would find it hard to justify.

The really big parasols I've linked to are surprisingly unexpensive (still loads of money - but much cheaper than I've seen elsewhere)
