ON A RECENT TRIP IT RAINED (DURING THE HOSEPIPE BAN) QUITE HEAVILY. i HAD TO GO OUT AND PUSH UP THE AWNING ROOF EVERY NOW AND THEN TO DRAIN THE LAKE THAT FORMED ON MY AWNING ROOF. I SOON GOT FED UP OF THIS AND LOOKED AROUND THE RUBBISH THAT I TAKE WITH ME WHEN CARAVANING. I SPIED THE OLD FIBERGLASS POLES FROM A PORCH AWNING THAT I HAD RECENTLY DISPOSED OF AS IT HAD RIPPED DURING A WINTER GALE. I PUT THE FIBERGLASS POLES AT 90 DEGREES TO AND OVER THE AWNING ROOF POLES. THIS GAVE THE AWNING ROOF A NICCE CURVE AND THE RAINWATER RAN OFF FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE DAY. I THOUGHT THAT WAS QUITE COOL FOR AN AGEING IDIOT!!!!
