    Just removed 4" of snow off my polytunnel, its only when you shake from inside you realise how much weight is there.

    I hate it when there's heavy snow in years when I haven't bothered taking the garden gazebo down over winter (normally when I reckon it'll need replacing the following year). I've been out 3 times bashing the underside with a broom to knock the snow off and have got the clothes lines prop wedged underneath supporting the framework at the apex.

    My Gazebo is still up too Scrungee but not in my garden - in my daughters garden. She borrowed it in early December for a party - despite telling her on the odd occasions 'you want to get the Gazebo down whilst it's dry' - guess what - she didn't. So there it stands gathering all this snow when it's normally tucked away by late September in the warmth. Kids - they never do what you tell them!!!!!!!!!!!
