    Generator Advice & Info

    That's good thinking on your part. Everyone is entitled to their opinion and everyone enjoys themselves better if those with conflicting opinions / views / agendas keep away from each other. It's like those couples who go to family resorts on holiday and then moan about the children playing in...

    Generator Advice & Info

    Thanks everyone for your comments so far. First, I agree that a CL is meant to be a quiet retreat but the generators was meant as a emergency measure if I did manage to drain the battery, which I have no doubt I will in a long weekend. I had thought of the solar option but I have found it to...

    Generator Advice & Info

    I am going to a CL in the Lakes for the bank holiday weekend and it doesn't have electric, which I need to run the TV etc. I have always been a fan of Honda products and their generators seem to be the best around, though this is reflected in the price. Has anyone got a generator and if so...

    Hi, I have an '88 Bessecar Cameo which has a carver 1800btu gas fire but no blown air. Someone told me that if I fitted a FanMaster kit then I could pipe up my van for blown air heating. These kits are out of production so i was after either a used kit or other alternative if anyone knows of...

    Calling all dog owners, Whats your opinion?

    I used to own two dogs and now hav no dogs and one toddler. I think signing an agreement would fail as it is nigh on impossible to police. As a dog owner I always ensured I removed my dogs poo but inevitably some times I didn't see this. Having a daughter I now am in a similar position in...

    Replacing / Recovering Cushions & Making Curtains

    I have a Bessecarr Cameo too! I have managed to get someone to re-cover the cushions and make new curtains. The curtains are in and look great. The only thing is that I was wondering what the best way of scotchguarding the fabric is as I have a little girl who is VERY messy.

    Decorating

    Looks like there is a few of us interested in this one. My 'van is an '88 and while the wall covering isn't the worst i have seen i wouldn't mind something different. Is there anyone out there who can help us?

    BP Gas Light Bottles ú25 Off!

    I understand that these are propane, not bupane as normaly used in caravans. However when i picked up my first 'van today they said you could use either. To be fair though the guy admited to only having worked there for 6 months.
