Planning a camping trip in nature any time soon? I have an outdoor tip for you. When you need to secure a tarpaulin, tent sheet, or plastic cover but there are no eyelets or anchor points, you can still tie it down safely. Start by folding and bunching up a corner of the material to create a thick grip point. Place a loop of rope around the bunched-up fabric so that a short tail of the rope sticks out. Wrap the long end of the rope around that tail and back on itself to form a double strand around the fabric. Then push the bunched-up corner of the material through the doubled rope loop and pull the rope tight. The tension and friction created by this simple knot hold the material firmly in place, even without any built-in attachment points.

The customer was puzzled.
“Why not may I ask?”
“You’ll have to use the dressing room like everyone else.”
?!
