    What sealant (replacing external power socket)

    I did the same - I fitted a exterior socket on my van (there wasn't one as standard). Used w4 mastic but finished the edge off with sikaflex. Also did the same on my old van on rails, was watertight and looked good without getting grubby overtime.

    PROJECTORS

    They have multiple pairs of walking boots, gaiters and the lot. Go hill walking - not many kids under 10 have done the 3 peaks challenge :) Its also good to get the gang together, sit under blankets late at night with a fire going and let them have fun in an outdoor cinema.

    PROJECTORS

    Hahaha, Yeah they do that, we go away 6 full weeks of the year with the kids (plus weekends), and with multiple families with kids. Only so many trees to climb and crabs to catch day in, day out! Its also great, late a night, with a campfire on the go, to get the full gang of 20 odd kids...

    Sunncamp Ultima Air 390 Deluxe

    I bought one of these awnings last year, so i've used it about 6-7 times now, including 2 weeks in France and a very windy week in Anglesey. Been a very good buy so far, no problems with the exception of on first use it did leak a bit, but since then its been fine and watertight. I've read that...

    Ban on smoking in vehicles with children

    Yeah, I very much doubt the police have the resource to stop everyone they see. An it would (at a guess) be more difficult to spot? Certainly more difficult than someone using a mobile phone?

    Ban on smoking in vehicles with children

    Hi All, About time too - today is the day a new law comes into play banning smoking in vehicles where persons under the age of 18 are present. Being a non smoker, In my opinion, its common sense not to do that anyway and I'd guess most smokers would feel the same ? I doubt there are few who...

    Refueling with Van

    Hi All, Traveling to France over the weekend, stopping in Folkstone for the evening. Anyone have any ideas on petrol stations en route to Folkstone (from the north west, m6 / m42 / m20) suitable to refuel while towing the van? Cheers!
