So, having attended a show yesterday, It was particularly sunny and hot with very little shade available, on the other hand, I'm sure it could equally be very wet and soggy.
So, question is..do any of you (with cars really) take any form of shelter with you. There were a few couples yesterday who had sundome type shelters, one had a fishing brolly type thing and 2 of the clubs had large dome shelters.
I have been looking at shelters online today, a popular one is the coleman sundome

Cheap and light enough but quite low if you are on normal deck chairs?

Any thoughts people?

Hi, here is our clubs gazebo, taken a few years ago, complete with table,chairs,BBQ, & people.



Now looking to be replaced but handy when it rains - we don't worry about the sunshine as we don't get enough of it. Graeme seems to be saying ' keep that dog away from my sausages or I'll bite it', cheers,JD.

A collection of cars in a field, is just a car park on the grass. Now add a few Gazebo's, a few fanatical owners, and we have a show!

Gazebos are places where owners' club officials hide so they don't have to talk to anyone - some even take their gazebos to indoor shows!
