What Are These Clip Things Called?
21 Answers
Does anyone know what these things are called? I will try to describe them.
You see them on trucks.
They hold down the tarpaulin covers.
They stick out. The tarpaulin has holes in with metal rings.
You put the rings over these sticky out things.
Then you pull them upwards, and they sort of drop down, and lock into place, so that they secure the tarpaulin against the side of the truck.
I've also seen them securing the back of a pick up truck.
You put the back bit up, and the holes in the back bit go over these sticky out things.
Then you lift them up, and they drop down and lock into place, to keep the back of the truck from falling open.
I want some of these things, to secure a tarpaulin at home. But I don't know what they are called (or even if they have a name).
Any ideas??

I hope that your question has already been answered above, Joggerjayne. I'm just popping in here to say 'Welcome back!'
We've missed you over the past 7 months. Surely you can't have been sulking all that time just because you couldn't get a drink in the Lion and Lobster (or wherever your favourite watering hole is in Brighton)?

Oh, hey, Chris x
You know I don't do sulks. And you get a smack on the wrist for saying the L and L in Brighton. You know it's in Hove, actually. They are quite particular about that, lol
It's been okay here, really. The hot weather over th past week has helped. I had a sneaky lunch with a pal today at the Olice Grove in the Lanes. It's Mediterranean tapas. V nice. Then we shared a bottle at the Black Lion. Everyone is very upbeat. It will obviously be lovely next week, to be able to sit inside places.
Oh hey, so following the last now from these guys, I've actually found those clips. They seem to be called Anti-Luce Clips. I mean, seriously?? It's no wonder they are hard to find.
