Nice one mate.. replied.. I'll see about popping over..

Thanks for the link too...

Edited to say:

I was sad enough to watch the video as 2 smartly dressed chaps put the 3x3 up in 6 mins 51 seconds.....

With 6 or more of us.. and with this is a brilliant idea I've had of painting the pole ends in matching colours (sorry Steve.. couldn't resist )...we'll do that in fractions of the time.. Looked dead easy really... I'll possibly take a trip over to Steve's this week to checkout the quality... but I think the 6x3 will do the job just nicely... next... a pack of 4 chairs from the same site.. and a Gas heater..

Andy.. get the BIG WYIOC stickers ready.. you'll have plenty of canvas to work with...

This 'ere Marquee (Can we still call it a gayzebo?)

Is it modular, ie. if we go for a 4 x 16m one, could we just erect it as a 4 x 8 or a 4 x 12 if space is a little tight?

If so then I've got a nice idea for the graphics

How much is a bouncy castle to hire may be an idea to bring a bit of money into club on some of the big events as lot of children & families go if we made a small charge it will also attract people to the WYIOC stand whats every bodies thoughts on this?

Already considered this, and spoken to a mate who has his own business hiring them. He's offered us a good rate, and a castle with it's own genny for the blower.

My only concern would be injuries. Too many ambulance chasers nowadays. Little Johhny falls, bumps his elbow, and the WYIOC end up in court.

Course, there's always insurance

The Gayzebo (no way we can change that name!) is modular as you can add 3x3 or 4x3 units on to the side if you buy the additional frame spiders....

Spoke to the guys there today and the 6x3 will hold 16 people seated comfortably with a few tables and 32 standing....

Those window panes can be individually removed for front access if you want to zip up the side panels..

We can get this, the heater and two sets of 4 foldable chairs for about £300

We need one so big that when you shout "Mick" at the top of your voice you get "mick..ick..ick..ick.." echoing back

Given the fact of how we've been able to finance this, I think it's only right to start calling it a 'MARK-E'

That's a nice touch.. I'd thought about how we could link Mark to the tent...but that's genious..

Ok, so we now have a Gay-zebo and a Mark-E? Nice one

I'd love to gloat about my correctness, and say 'Told you so', but that's not like me

That'll do, Donkey... That'll do.

Plenty big enough for now, with the option to extend at a later date. Perfick
