    Just picked up one of these.

    FANTASTIC BARGAIN - thanks dazzer

    Actually its not 3.7 nor 2.7

    It's 3.5

    The "natural" (fawn/beige ?) is still £129.99 (product number 811718)

    The "olive green" is indeed reduced to £39.99 (product number 805072)

    The £129.99 price is actually already a reduction - BOTH were originally £144.99

    When I went to pay I asked at the desk about money off vouchers and the very nice girl produced a £5 off £30

    (I didn't realise until afterwards that she also had £10 off £50 aswell - I was handed one with my receipt and another £5 off £30.- VALID 10th aug)

    So got one for £34.99 and with my Spend & Save card rewarding me with 10% (£3.50) in a few weeks - that's just £31.49 - BARGAIN !!!!!

    Yes it does.

    The downward support ends up in a socket that protrudes from quite a large + cross made from L section steel and the idea is that it sits underneath & right in the centre joint of 4 concrete slabs

    This isn't the actual one (I don't think) but it's as near as damn it. At least gives you the right idea.
