in It's gone, but was it any good?
I have found the ideal parasol for us. It might be good for you and it is reduced from 99.99 to 49.99. It is still in stock!

See Argos Half Price Parasol

The Parasol is very large and made of aluminium - I haven't seen this type at this price before.

    We were looking at this at the weekend. It is fantasic but please note it does need to be cemented into the ground. In argos they has about 12 bags of sand holding it down so it is very very heavy.

    Really? I think you can use paving stones to hold it down - that is why the feet have about 1 inch lips on the edge of them. Anyway, you can return stuff within 14 days if that doesn't work. I dont' th ink people nationwide are using bags of sand - I presume they use them because they sell them and they don't sell paving stones?

    Arrived on Friday just in time for the wet weekend! It is fully supported by 4 paving stones. It seems top quality so I do recommend it1 :j
