Just a warning..

I'm off to Reading Festival this weekend (yep, have wellies at the ready!), and thought I'd look for a gazebo - not the posh trellis ones, but the cheap stripy things which a lot of people have between tents.

Looked on Google, and saw that someone had bid on the word for Argos.

Argos aren't selling gazebos. At least not that I could find on the website OR my Argos Extra catalogue.

I admit it made me giggle a little, but being the kind person that I am, I thought I had better post here incase it's any of you!

(if anyone does know of any shops in the 'real world' that sells them, please let me know - I'm going down tomorrow and Woolworths on Edgware Road is crap and doesn't have any garden stuff)

I hear you on the Woolworths front but they do have a great selection of pick and mix!

But I don't want any sweets!

I went yesterday to see if they had wellies or raincoats. Now I always remember rows and rows (or it seemed) of cheap green wellies, even in adult sizes. Yesterday they didn't go any bigger than a 1, and so I was left getting pink (!) ones from New Look.

Raincoats - in the Milton Keynes branch I'd seen school ones up to a 15-16 boys size (cheap n' cheerful) and yet again, nothing.

You'd think being in London they'd do everything?!

you'd think!

Maybe that is the niche market, tap into it and earn a fortune.

I am off camping in abersoch this weekend, looking at his weather looks like i will be sat in my tent playing eye spy!

Got any wellies I can buy?

Wellies are a must have festival item, I hear reading site is already really muddy from all the rain.

I've only just finished being a student - I can't afford to shop in Harrods!

yes. apparently it's going to rain on Friday too, but be sunny on Saturday & Sunday. I'm all for being back with nature, but it's so much nicer if nature is dry and calm.

You have to be able to get a Harrods card first!!

You don't need wellies. Half the fun of a festival is getting your trousers caked in mud

Kwik Save have them at £12.99....go one a few weeks ago, no sides but it has a roof

Not exactly cheap and not a gazebo but an Instant Awning

looks like an interesting niche to me.

Mind you, with one of those things up, how are we going to see the band/s? ;-)
