    window full of water

    Thanks for all the advice, before this happened that window did used to steam up inside with condensation, so maybe a small hole has turned into a bigger one. Will have a go at getting the water out and resealing as suggested.

    Selling a german caravan

    we were offered a ridiculously low price for our old Dethleffs if we traded it in, so we sold it through preloved or loot cant remember whichone and bought a new van privately as well. I could have sold my old van 5 times over within an Hour of it going on so dont worry your dads will sell.

    Curtains, blinds and cushions

    I washed all my curtains in the washing mashine on cold with a slow spin with dreft and they were fine. I wash loads of things that say dry clean only and have never had a problem. I first washed the big curtain that goes round the dinette because we never use it any way, as a 'trial'

    window full of water

    Well not exactly full, but about an inch and a half of water sloshing about in the bottom of the front window, this was after heavy rain in the Yorkshire Dales last week. Can it be dried out and resealed? If so how? or is it a case of mending it with a new one? regards and happy caravanning

    Do you really need it?

    Dry Clean the Paintwork

    Cleaned our van with one dry wash on Tuesday, not because of hose pipe ban ( it has rained for a month non stop here) but it is kept in storage and I can't tow it to the hose pipe with my little car. It did a good job, my Mum helped me and she was very skeptical but was pleased with the result...

    Memory Foam Mattress Topper

    Duvalays might slide off a fixed bed, if you are OK with your topper I would stick with that. I do wish they made a shorter one though to go on my son's side dinette bed, as he keeps climbing in with us 'beacuse it is more snuggly' than his sleeping bag. He is only 4 but takes up loads of...
