  I'm also in Scotland.
  Last month I was working in a clients garden as were two joiners, I commented how rubbish the weather was, they said no problem and erected a gazebo, looked the business until the wind got up and blew it a hundred metres down the driveway :)

  I've got one, it's handy. But you have to peg or weight it down properly. More for drizzle and damp than blustery conditions.

  That's great to hear guys, I think it'll be on the shopping list... its mainly to keep the tools dry and so we can have some shelter when sawing etc

    Pay for themselves in a day. We have a few for this purpose, even use 1 for the man mixing and 1 for laying slabs under. Definitely get the pop up think our 3mx3m was £80 and £120 for the 3mx5m's and logos were about £40 to go on the roof. Always tie down.

  Use a caravan awning on the side of the van. You can find them second hand & they wind out in a couple of minutes.  You can even cut one down for the rear door.

  Go look for awning/gazebo water ballast bags. They work well and are convenient.

  Stopping work would be my preferred option:)

     I like the idea of using the gazebo as a fry area, egg and bacon for me please.
