Fun with awnings

[IanE]

Hope I've managed to upload a pic - which shows a (for us) novel way of using a drive away awning - first winding out the fixed awning and then attaching the Kyham Classic. It worked a treat for us for the last couple of days, providing a sheltered area between the drive away and the van

Its a well known trick. Works even better if you get the sun canopy sides gives you so much more space

Looks like you've got plenty of room, although in some places you would not be able to get all that on your pitch. One of the reasons why I was happy with the Beach and no electrical hook up (EHU) is you end up with plenty of choice.

I spent a few weeks camping around South Island in NZ last year and quickly realised that the best pitches away from everybody else, space, quiet and with the best views involved having no EHU and you get to choose your spot!

We have used ours like that too

Am I right in thinking that you cannot deploy the legs if you are using it in this way though - I couldnt figure out doing both with using the strip connected under the flap too?

We were able to use the legs, you need them to support the awning.

Yup us too no problem

Browsing through some pics on my phone earlier and I found a pic of one of Oli's vans.
