Ah that's good, I had that with a 'genuine' laptop charger, it wasnt genuine at all but supplier said no need to return and instant refund, they don't want bad reviews, ordered it through the rain forest place

Supplier is refunding me, no need to return.

Good Morning.
I will order some softer brushes.

I have indeed bodged the cable crimp connections. Turns out the crimp connectors supplier sent are cheap aluminium ones and not tin plated copper as stated.
I have ordered from a different supplier and will return the aluminium ones.

There has been complaints about the recent memo asking patrons to always use toilet brushes and they want to go back to using paper

Someone did not flush after crimping butt.

[rovi70] 28/3/2024 00:28

New toilet block's required lemon's smelling would be nice.

Evening

I'm sure you would not bodge anything Jonners, well except for the machine in the male toilets which dispenses 'something for the weekend sir' it hasn't worked for years but no one dare complain

I received my new crimp butt connectors for joining my cables in the Motorhome, can replace all the bulky chocolate block screw connections I used. Make it look professional and engineered rather than bodged.

Good Morning.
I cannot see what the problem is you have rovi!

Is this pun ok, cannot think of a better one so you can see you are stuck with it. (sorry)

Hope all goes well rovi, seems a straight forward op these days.

Spec save opticians today cataracts found so to be booked in for opp by May/ June happy days. Thought there was a problem as night driving seemed odd with peripheral vision good but straight on poor. Just thought at first it was old car old lights but it turned out to be old eyes.

[jonjonck] 26/3/2024 16:06

Back from an afternoon stroll. Not very warm out despite the sun shining.

[jonjonck] 26/3/2024 12:51

I do not think 2G can see your post, he is fast asleep despite being midday.

[rovi70] 26/3/2024 12:11

Not a good time 5. 21 still not had first night pee.

[2gekko] 26/3/2024 05:21

I have recently cut down on the alcohol, you will sleep so much better they say, yeah well it's just gone 5am and I'm wide awake, same yesterday

Chemical toilets are a pain in hot weather but a necessity. I seem to be constantly looking for somewhere to empty ours.

[2gekko] 25/3/2024 20:42

I actually quite enjoyed that side of it and you appreciate the comforts when you get home, mind you we had a week on the Broads during a heatwave and the chemical toilet was a challenge, we had it flushed and it seemed worse!

[jonjonck] 25/3/2024 17:48

Certainly to me having an alternative way of doing things is very much part of the fun.

Artnoon

He could run a tumble dryer with that, I always felt not having all the home comforts was part of it when we went camping or on the riverboats at Norfolk Broads

Good Morning.
I have a small 240v invertor but very rarely use it...just for charging phones and cameras really.
Kettle is fast on the gas hob. On Campsites or Aires and Stellplatz when we have mains hook up we do indeed have a small electric kettle to save on gas.

My brother has a camper van and has had large Lithium batteries and a 3kW invertor fitted so he can use things like Air friers and a kettle. A lot of cost just so you can do what you do at home. However he has also fitted it so he can charge a folding mobility scooter which he actually gets delivered today or tomorrow.

Morning

Do you have a 240v converter in said Motorhome or is everything 12v, kettle so slow!

[jonjonck] 24/3/2024 19:22

it was a sunny Friday so shall abbreviate to 'Sun Day'.

[rovi70] 24/3/2024 17:37

Sunday lunch on a Friday what ever next.

[jonjonck] 24/3/2024 15:30

Good Afternoon.
Nice sunny Friday here now as well.

Have managed to improve the battery charging on the Motorhome when fridge is on the engine 12 volts. So no longer discharging it which is a big step forward, but charging voltage could still do with being higher.
