There is a cupboard that the curtain disappears into when open which is about 6 inches wide? Dunno just thinking of a better way.

Hi Does anyone have any ideas how to make the shower in my van a tad more powerful please? John.

I saw someone selling this on ebay for 89p per foot.

Sorry me again (thinking of upgrades over the winter)...we have a 91 oxford which only has curtains on the windows. Would like to fit the more useful blind cassettes if I can. Can anyone offer me advice please? I've seen some on ebay (remis?) which range from 25 to 40 quid-ish. Can one be fitted...

Hi all again, I have an older van with a side dinette that converts into bunks. At the moment there is 2 curtains that pull round, but I'm looking to install something with a bit more substance so our youngs girls get a better night sleep. What do newer vans use? And is there some kind of...

Hi there, I have seen it recommended somewhere that fitting a low wattage towel rail in the bathroom maybe beneficial to keep the chill out, and to save running the carver all night. Does anyone have any advice please on where to purchase such an item and on installation (I am qualified...

Hi, just got back from our first trip. Outfit - 2008 Mondeo Estate 2.0TDCI & 1991 Abbey Oxford. Went down to Pentewan Sands Park for the week, which was 250 miles away. Caravan towed very well, considering it was my first time! I was a bit worried about some of the movement from the back, but...

Hi I have a Thetford PortaPotti, think it's a C2 model. Bench seat with cassette. Problem being that it doesn't flush. Checked cassette safety switch and fuse, both OK, and when pressing the flush button the lights fliker, which may indicated 12V connection OK? Could it be the pump and how can...

Hi, Brand new to caravanning and just bought a second hand Apache awning on eBay. Tried it on the rail and everything looks OK. First trip next week and we've got no instructions for the awning and I'm worried about it, even having bad dreams. Does anyone have any instructions or advice for me...

Thanks Damian, I think there is a seperate switch you know. I also think it is a pressure system, therefore that's why it ran, and continued because of the leaking eh? I will give it another go tomorrow. Thanks again buddy. John.

Hi, I wonder if someone could give me a bit of advice about using my water system! I have an Abbey Oxford, 1991 and have just had a practice run at connecting the fresh water. However it's a bit tight on that side to connect my aquaroll and it's up against my neighbours wall, so I filled a...

Hi, I'm new to this and have just bought a second hand awning. I measured correctly, i.e the rail with a ball of string to get the size etc. When I looked at the skirt however when I got home it wasn't the full length of the van. Is this wrong? I don't know because my parents caravan when we...

Hi all, Does anyone know how much of my 40ltr Aquaroll a 3 - 4 minutes shower would use? I have a Carver Cascade 2. Ta. John.
