I wasn't too far away years ago in Cottesloe just up the road from the Hotel, so many foggy memories of Sunday sessions
:eek:

I first moved into a place in Broome street Cottesloe with a great verandah facing the beach
Only problem was that from 2pm onwards the sun shone in so bright and hot that I had to close the blinds and pull down a shade cloth awning.
The other place my verandah faced north so I had a view right up the coast but the sun was blocked out
Perfect

I'm guessing that is Magic Mushroom ~ or grey as it's recorded on the official registration.

There's perhaps only 1 white vehicle in this test fleet and the registration is HF72 FXP, and so far it seems to be quite camera shy. Maybe because it's an N1 and the journalists are all in Belstaff editions?

Very nice although those awnings are pretty flimsy. It looks like the slightest breeze would collapse them. I’ve checked them out an overland show and the hinge/joints wouldn’t stand up to serious use in my view.
The awning on my defender was self supporting and you could put poles and guy ropes for breezy conditions. Could also hang off it and do pull up if you were that way inclined and not too heavy of course. The only plus side to those awnings from what I can gather is that they are light weight.

How stupid has the world become that she now writes after her name that she wants to be referred to as she/her.

Not particularly stupid, just more complicated than things used to be.

Let’s leave that one alone I think.

Now, back to the highlands….

I have one of these awnings, previously I had a Foxwing one, the Fowwing was great but the poles came in a separate bag and they were a pain to carry around and then ine day a big wind caught it and it was all over it just buckled and broke the joints. The Rhino one is a significant improvement, the poles fold into the case so they are always there andbout of the car. The construction is definitely more robust and the joints are replacable if there is an incident. I think it a pretty decent product, its not bulletproof, and you do need the poles but it fast and easy to set up.
