I got a nice swing chair for my tiny garden that I thought would be very enjoyable in the warm sunny days.
I’m not British and maybe that’s why my threshold for “warm” is quite high, but the fact remains that now I have a barely used 3-seater swing that becomes a hassle on windy days. I’ve tried using rope and ring walls but the cover acts like a sail so it keeps moving and banging against the wall… Any advice appreciated!

Take the cover off, it should just be a tie-on thing (and washable).
Unhook the seat and sit it on the floor.
If it’s close enough to the frame you could install a lock bolt – I would perhaps install two (one each side) so you don’t risk twisting it out by trying to swing it with it locked.
If you have any other ideas about things to put in the garden then have a look around first and see if your neighbours have them. If not, there might be a reason 🤣
