Well, the GPS led us a merry dance today! We ended up on a closed dirt road where we had to turn around in a tight spot. Then we ended up having to reverse 100 meters down another dirt road. Finally ended up here. Very pretty large grassed area but the mozzies and flying insects are gonna drive me nuts!

Re: Coopernook State Forest camping ground
And just to add insult to injury, just opened the fridge. Tub of yoghurt upside down, fortunately with the lid intact. Jar of horseradish cream on its side, lid off and half the contents spread over the items below. Gotta keep the fridge jammed tight to stop things moving around. Another lesson learnt!

Would something like a Tupperware tray work? Might not curtail the spill, but may contain it.Swisslulu wrote:... Jar of horseradish cream on its side,...
dawg (or you could stuff the fridge shelves with spare towels to keep things in place)

Re: Coopernook State Forest camping ground
Brian has a handy idea that uses adjustable rods with rubber feet on the ends. you just pack everything into the fridge shelves and then jam these spring loaded rods from side to side, about half way up the shelf, nothing escapes then. Maybe brian can put up a link to where he bought them, they work great in the Mazda fridge.

Re: Coopernook State Forest camping ground
Yes, Brad, that would work. I have a plastic tray that I had some bottles in - they were the ones that got covered in the horseradish cream! I have other plastic containers that I can use for the remaining spillable items which I will press into service before we leave tomorrow. Prior to this, the fridge had been quite full so no chance of things moving around. I will pay more attention to packing the fridge in future. Now that we have the Lithiums installed, I don't have to panic about how long the fridge door is opened.

Re: Coopernook State Forest camping ground
Well you have solved your problem in one Swell Foop - just take the sack out of the box and the limp bag will adjust to the odd shapes in the fridge restraining the recalcitrant wayward items and will chill the wine at the same time.Swisslulu wrote:Steve, I prefer a few wine casks! ...
The only problem is how to get all that wine from those bottles into that wine sack. Solutions anyone?

dawg (I guess you could suck it out of the bottle and spit it into the nozzle opening)
