Help! Gazebo needed for SCH weekend!

[glenrobbo]

We had arranged to borrow a gazebo from the TVRCC for the SCH 2015 weekend at Stoneleigh on 2/3/4th May, but they have told us it has been damaged at the weekend and is no longer fit for purpose.

Does anybody have one they would be willing to lend us for the event?

I have procured a small one, but we need a bit more shelter in case the sun is too intense for our sensitive skins / solar head panels / whatever.

PM Alan461 or myself if you can help.

Thanks,
Glen

I'd be quite happy to bung a fiver towards this, just need 19 other "volunteers" ...



Then, should it rain, 20 of us can stand under cover snug and dry and laugh at everyone else

I recently bought a 3x3m easy up gazebo off evilbay. Can't do links at the mo. Search 'easy up gazebo'. £48 delivered. Covers a bit tight but other than that great value. Happy to throw in a fiver too.

I have a 3x3 gazebo you can borrow

only problem is I can't get down so would need to give to someone and have it returned (Teesside)

[glenrobbo]

Well, in that case, I'll match Ray's two fivers
That's a bit more shelter space for both of us!

Mike, If we get to the magic number, can you order it Mike, and bring it to erect before the big day?
I won't have any space left in Austin, what with all the other gubbins I'm bringing on the Saturday.

ETA: Thanks for the offer Mick, but logistics could be a problem.

Hang onto your money for a minute chaps, I think I'm onto the loan of good 'un.


What day would you want it put the gazebo up Glen?

Edited by phillpot on Thursday 16th April 09:27

[glenrobbo]

Early as poss on Star Wars Day = Monday morning.

( With volunteers to help with the erection, obviously ).

[phillpot]

Hopefully be able to confirm later today.


Bright and early Monday morning not a problem

Edited for the sake of decency.
Don't want my reputation tarnishing.

[glenrobbo]

Nice one Mike,

I shall await your confirmation before taking further action.

[RayTVR]

I could always collect Magpies if required ( but probably coming down on Sunday')

[glenrobbo]

Thanks for the offers Ray, but I think Mick only has one available.;)

We'll wait and see if Phillpot can get the one he mentioned.

This forum is brilliant!
Far better than some express couriers I can think of......

Edit:
In fact, at least twice as good!

I rather like the sound of that Dale.....
We could have a nice comfy lounge area for the GTS members to snooze, and a gazebo with bars to enclose the Bank Robbers, and another labelled Area 51 for an audience with Joe
We'll have to see if Stoneleigh will allow such a vast nomad encampment.
Can we get back to you on that one?

No problem , better go and see if the mice have left it intact .
