  • I thought about that as an option but it's the window I look out of whilst working so don't really want anything permanent blocking the view or the light.

    @Howard that's about where I've got to. Most are described as showerproof but also suitable for year-round use so fuck knows. Not looking really shit when retracted is a concern but there isn't much useful stuff that I can find online.

  • That’s fair. If it definitely needs to get out of the way sometimes then I’d probably improvise a solution with eye bolts in the wall up top and on the floor and some angled tube holders on the wall then cantilever a canvas roof using poles, para cord and carabiners but understand that might be a little ray mears for everyone’s taste. I grew up with a retractable shade thingy at our house and never liked its wobbly overcomplicated vibe. Rope and canvas ftw!

  • Although that would probably work better, realistically something that takes more than a minute or two to put up and isn't self-contained isn't going to happen.

    @benjaminbunny cheers for the offer but I don't think I'll be anywhere near Norwich any time soon.

    @tbc just having had a quick google it seems that is a price on application kind of place which I assume means it is expensive (or at least more expensive than my cheap budget).
