Now what I want to know, when did you get in our awning and take that picture
Only joking! We seem to have everything in ours apart from the kitchen sink , just got our caravan though, so maybe we maybe able to reduce the contents of the awning.

Please enlighten me!! All my pics say too large, resize before uploading??
I just uploaded the images to photobucket and resized to 'large'. I've no idea why the one came out smaller than the other though. Now I've done it, I hope others will too.------------- David

What about the howling gale blowing i from above the wheel
Seems to me to be a bit of a rush job to show off your new awning !

I only take the van out when it's not windy!
Seriously, I have never bothered with the bit over the wheel and have not found it much of a problem.
Anyway, I like looking at the alloys.

We always position our table vertically from the centre pole of the awning, pointing towards the 'van, we find we make the most of the room that way and get 4 chairs round it. Sometimes we put another table where yours is for a TV. We put the cable and the aerial through the window to the sockets.

Another useful site is servimg.com as you resize your pictures when you upload them, to suit whatever purpose you need them for. Sort to folders etc., and works an absolute treat.------------- Paul

Don't you have to fix clips to the caravan to fit the over wheel arch bit. I don't fancy doing that.

That's the main reason I don't do it. Never really fancied making holes, and velcroe gets very dirty.------------- David

We use suction cups (is that right?) and Clingons to hold our wheel arch cover to the van. Works abosolutely fine and no need for holes and messy velcro! Sorry haven't ot a picture.
