We're taking our caravan for it's 3rd outing to the Bash, it came with an awning but we haven't had a practice run with it, so if you see a couple at the Bash who look like they're headed for the divorce courts, that'll be us

We always used to fall out when we 1st started putting up the bongo awning together

so god knows what'll happen with a caravan awning with no instructions.

I found with caravans awnings .. it's how easy it fits into the awning rail ..
I bought some dry silicone lubricant .. and a rail spreading tool .. which I used to push (or tap) through the awning rail before trying ..

Thanks for the advice Mike, I'm sure David has something that will do the job in his little bag of trick, aka his tool box

Will get him to have a look at the rail before was go on Wed.
