Rain stopped play today. Strong winds and sleety rain isn't really ideal for trying to fit a rooftent.
I had to make up some bracketry and took the opportunity to create a better method of securing the awning so that it sits level. the 'uprights' on the safety devices rack are at an angle. By bolting the awning to these it effectively pointed skywards when extended. By extending one of the rooftent securing brackets I have managed to create a near vertical surface at the rear of the rack to mount it to. I will add some photos when the weather permits. I still need to make a similar bracket for the front which I will do when I sort out the chequer plate.
The weather doesn't look much better tomorrow so it may have to wait a bit.
