Cheap gazebo for any garageless lightweights (like me) - SV650.org

Argos have a special offer on at the mo - buy a £30 garden gazebo and get free side panels, normally £20. Handy for anyone who needs to be working in the rain without the benefit of a garage.

Details of the offer here.

Just about to pick one up so maybe I will start on the curvy today after all. Wonder if they sell cheap space heaters...and maybe a sofa...and a fridge

Sounds good, make sure you can peg it down so it doesn't blow away with all this wind.

I have got one of these - cheap as chips, but worth paying extra to get a 'pop up' one - this one is a load of poles that you need to connect, so you need at least two of you. My old pop up one I could erect (fnaaarrr) and collapse on my own.

You're not kidding about the poles. Just counted and there are 28 of the buggers!! Got a lot to do in the coming weeks so will probably leave the frame up and just sling the fabric over when I need to work. Hope it means I can work through the bad weather and have my bike on the road for when spring gets its act together.

My son bought one of these for his race bike. We tried to erect it yesterday at Wigan in the wind & hail.... What a palarva

You gets what you pay for to be honest & I, myself would buy something better. One of the poles bent in 2, but, in it's defence, the weather was quite atrotious
