Sooo much pooping

[beach chick]

just thinking about ordering some tarpaflex for my WIR, planning to hang them on cuphooks with battens to weigh them down as done by other clever peeps on here.

BUT, I cant work out from the website if it comes with the holes for the cuphooks already made, and in which case are they on all sides or just one - which would affect the size I order. and is there an existing batten slot or did you make it yourself?

thanks in advance!

They have holes on all sides but I also bought a kit for making more. very useful and didn't cost much.

I just put the hooks in to match the distance of the holes in the tarp - seemples

Oh and im not that clever, i just use a few bricks to weigh it down at the bottom

[Dizzy-Deb]

is there any other way to secure the sides & bottom...is that what use the bungees for or the shock cords ?

I've got cup hooks half way down sides and in each corner like Chick wigg and it works really well

Did you buy the kit from Tarpaflex Plum?

We all like cheap. My OH pointed that out to me a while back - 'Why are your forum friends always trying to bodge things?' We don't we just practice economy (after throwing loads of money at their housing etc., )

I think the ring kit cost less than a couple of bricks chickwiggle

[beach chick]

ah... but if you've got bricks lying around it's recyling, right?

I just love bricks they are so useful . I use a pile to stand my drinker on and the shed and I have them along the fence to stop the girls chucking soil into the garden below. Every garden needs some old bricks
