    Oh we had a lovely one the last few years but we took it down ready for a new one this year and still have not got round to replacing it

    I am jealous because we used to spend our days out there and the kids love it when it rained

    Have fun

    now thats a good price ... i keep looking at the one with 3 pannels on it but one side will be right by my patio doors os 2 sided will be better I think. just need to be sure as the sandpit will be too heavy to move once it us full so wherever I position it it will stay there all summer .... only got a diddy area as the trampoline playhouse and swingboat take up most of the room.

    hmmm might just go shopping after lunch lol

    Yep we have that problem

    They are great but they do take up so much space and like you say are there all summer

    I'm looking to get a canopy as well, hopefully from the capital grant funding.

    I've just heard on the news that we're due to have a hot summer
    so maybe I ought to get a gazebo now before the mad rush starts!

    I've got a guy from Manchester come to give me a quote but I'm not sure he'd travel to you!

    Maybe look in your local paper?

    I put a new one up every couple of years. Trouble the afterschoolers want to eat out there under it even in november when it is freezing.
