Title: Rain - Keeping dry
Post by: Paul Simpson on October 05, 2009, 11:23:00 am: Always been lucky with the weather, either been dry or 1 big job on a wet day, i.e. in and out once.

But next 2 days we are set for heavy rain in the south and both days got 3+ jobs on so will be constantly in and out of the van, equipment getting wet, etc.

Anyone got an easy solution that they use, apart from an umbrella, unless its a bl**dy big one ;D

Anyone use a canopy of some sort to give cover at the back of the van at least?

Cheers
Paul

Otherwise wear a coat or wait for the heavy stuff to blow over.

Can someone explain where this water that is falling out of the sky comes from.
I thought water came out of a tap.
East Anglia - the driest part of the uk ;D
