Anything longer than 5 lines is gunna get the eyes rolling back.
Some of your posts do tend to get a bit long winded
Just saying.
Please don't shoot the messenger
And Merry Christmas to you to.
But NP always wins the long post award.
5 lines long, see if that helps lots of photos .... did you ever apply for the job of writing Trumps briefing notes by any chance I'm just imagining what runs across the screen of his teleprompter ..... I see the explosions, but haven't heard a "Beep Beep" yet

I do not know Jd there has been no mentions of such a thing and as for the "black gunky stuff" didn't someone say it is T Rex? who puts dinosaurs poop onto things? Are the gas tanks fixed?
Were the gas tanks broken Dottie?
That 21st century dinosaur poop sure sets fast, and just like the dog dropping on the front lawn, it appears to turn white in the sun ....

The rope is up in the two pieces of sailtrack already fitted, ready to pull the awning through when my able bodied assistant returns from a shopping trip with Brian ..... the wind should have dropped by then, and the sun gone down behind the next door shed

Is it better if I break it up into separate posts? Each with a picture?

Awning got dirty and permanent marks while still rolled up on the drum. I gave it a wash, but I think I'll order a new one at some time

The towel with the knot in the end is for when the wind catches the door and swings it open against the side of the body ..... there are a number of fibreglass repairs needed already where the door hit the corner of the bin door when it was open

Explain that a bit more...please..
Bernie.
I know what he's trying to do!
When I had the boat I had awnings in sail tracks on both sides.
I had Wendy walk down the side deck pulling the awnings in while I fed it in the end. All 60ft of it.
It's not how I'd do it (on a motorhome awning) but there's lots of ways to skin a cat!!!
Yep I understand that Bruce.. but Terry already has the "rope" in the sail track... my book sez to put it through the awning and pull the whole lot through..

Terry, on our Winny, the previous owner fitted a hook and saddle gizmo to stop the outer door from trying to bear itself to death.
He also removed the little gas strut from the top of the door.
