I made a shelf in my shed out of a wardrobe but when someone asks me where I keep my hammer I don't tell them it's on top of the wardrobe.

I think we should calls Daves protection a parabrella or could be a umbresol, either way a very good idea

Parabrella sounds too much like a type of bacteria and Umbresol is a tanning lotion isn't it?

It's a frost canopy.

Anyone know what that would be in Latin?

Karl I think Dave used rope to further support his from the wind. Perhaps some blue rope with stakes in the ground and then wrapped around the arms of the inside of umbrella would secure it
