... Needs a slight adjustment though, as we did find a little yappy dog inside the barrier, with a postman's hat in it's slobbering mouth! Bloody thing must have crawled under the bottom beam!!

Chapper: Excuse this novice but why is it a problem if the tarp rubs against the ridge when there is wind?

If you hang the tarp over a ridge line, rain may run down the line under the tarp and drip from the lowest point. A simple piece of string (a 'drip line') tied just under the edge of the tarp at each end should divert the drips towards the ground before they run any further along the ridge line. See here Probably better to avoid the line going under the tarp altogether.
