We had one of those, finished up in the bin, as it wouldnt stay lit. Used to keep a vent on the hatch open, and as soon as i caught either of us yawning, off it went. Prefer to run generator and use an electric heater, can run off batteries if needed.

A very dear friend of ours wrote this and I thought some of you may be interested. (Peter that wrote this was a Viet Vet Chopper pilot)


Well I understand that I may not be the sharpest nail in the bucket, but even I (and others I served with) could see years ago that our military & humanitarian involvement in Iraq was destined to be another Vietnam, the only practical difference being the scenery. An ultimately futile exercise destined to failure, merely delaying the inevitable and at the cost of those of ours we can least afford to lose. Those at "the sharp end" do their job with honour and commitment, it is the bastard politicians that sacrifice them and the truth without honour.

Long time ago,
Where have all the soldiers gone,
They've gone to graveyards every one,

Human dumbness never ceases to amaze me. There are 2 dump points here and the caretaker has put signs on them saying "Please do not use these dump points as they are full" but true to selfish human behaviour they are still lifting the lids and chucking their shite all around the place. There is another dump point within a couple of metres that can be used but Oh no too far to walk, god knows their thinking (if they are) And we wonder why these spots are closing :roll: :evil:

1/ My Motorhome has no artwork /Signwriting on it so why do I have cover for this item?

D&G,
Look on the bright side:

If you ever have a claim on your policy with KTA, you can get some artwork done on the bus, claim it on the policy and quote your question and their answer back to them!

Dot, Cotton wool soaked in Oil of Cloves used to be a temporary fix years ago, but they probably have a drug for that now. Bugger.
