Likewise the Mini-maintenance stand, except I opted for straw - then
it really smelt like a farmyard.
At one stage on Monday I had students trying to keep dry whilst
holding the tent down - even then it sufferd broken struts.
I have done most things, now I have lectured whlst paddling as well.

Funny that - I got the Skoda off every day, even on Sunday when it
was fully loaded on Thursday and Monday.
In my view too many drivers thought the method was first gear and
plenty of revs.
I particularly liked the BMWs and Mercs efforts with rear wheel drive.

Why not leave it - it will be all ready for Beale Park :-)
