What mobile broadband do you guys use these days? In the past I’ve always used a Three data SIM 24GB that lasts for 24 months but me new van comes with a telly so I’ll probably need more data. I’ve noticed a Three Data SIM is available 5G..,80GB renewable every month until Jan 2027 for about...

I am now the proud owner of an EcoFlow Delta 2 but notice when connected to the EHU socket on the van the reversed polarity light comes on. I am told this is because there is no earth. Is this OK & safe?, will it harm the appliances? I am a total dickhead when it comes to electricity ⚡️ & am...

Aldi have slashed the price of Cairanne red from £8.99 to an incredible £3.99! It’s quite a posh wine, the Times critic was raving about it. There’s a catch though, it’s limited to two bottles per customer. I tried to buy four but had two ‘confiscated’ at the till, I’ll walk down there later &...

My Speedo on 2004 Peugeot Boxer is not recording. My Auto-electric guru has ascertained after tests that the speed sensor is at fault. With great difficulty I managed to work it out but had to push it back immediately as oil started to flood out! As this sensor is located low down in the gearbox...

In my next van I have the option of a Truma diesel Combi. As the number of lpg filling points seem to be reducing at a fast rate of knots I thought this might be a good idea. If anyone out there is running one of these I’d love to hear the pros and cons, Please 🙏.

After 5-6 months every year in the Spanish sun (pre Brexit) the black plastic & trim on my camper has been bleached light grey! Like Amy Winehouse I need to get it ‘Back to Black’ I tried Simoniz Back to Black but found it useless. How can a clear liquid turn grey plastic black?. I need...

My daughter is going to the Isle of Wight musical festival in June but unfortunately she was too late to book a campervan slot. Anyone out there got any idea where she can wildcamp fairly near Seaclose Park in Newport?

Not used the van since the Upton Blues in July. Filled the fresh water tank for a forthcoming trip, continuous operating noise from pump, operating light on control panel but nothing coming the tap. I fitted a new Shurflo pump about 7 years ago & it’s been fine up to now. Any ideas out there...

To anyone not aware: The AP7 Autopista del Mediterranean is now Gratis, Freeman’s from Tarragona to Alicante. Apparently this is to relieve congestion in the coastal towns. We shot down from Valencia to Javea in no time today which would have taken ages on the 337.

My shower is leaking slightly, might need a new washer? The tap type is where the handle is pulled out to turn the water on & twist to control temperature. I’ve replaced plenty of washers in my time but wouldn’t know where to start on this one. Anyone out there had this problem?

I always thought that full members would be free of those wretched adverts. But recently, when signing in I seem to be bombarded with ads. Am I missing something here?, am I doing something wrong?.

This time It's a nasty acrid/chemical smell coming from back of fridge. The flame is blue, there is no smoke coming from exterior vent but this stained black. There is a CO2 alarm in van which does not sound unless I hold it over exterior vent. The burner assembly has recently been cleaned &...

This chap popped his head in, if he could have jumped up, I’m sure he would have done.

San Sebastián, car park in the Paseo Nuevo on the east headland. Cops told me to bugger off last week, apparently there’s now a notice at the beginning of the road to the headland prohibiting MHs. I drove to the aire the other side of town which is actually cheaper than that car park, also...

These are on offer at £4 for two packs, thought I had a good deal when buying 2 packs in Jan for £6. Works out at 10p per cassette load. I find these far more effective, more environment friendly & with less pong than the harmful blue chemicals. Have now got enough to last me several years!

Just had an email, purportedly from AIB, they want to know my Date of Birth. This strikes me as unusual, makes me think of a possible scam. Anyone else had these?

Well not really, first 2days heavy rain. After everything going wrong including the ferry cancelled due to bad weather in Bay of Biscay, we found a quiet spot by the beach north of Santander outside the prohibition zone but woken in the morning by a dreadful noise, they were digging up the road...

It wasn't a parking fine, I'd paid the £5.20 charge for 24hrs. No, this was something completely different, it was a warning from Brighton Council that I was residing in a vehicle on the public highway contrary to Section 77 of the Criminal Justice & Public Order Act 1994 In all the years I've...

Last Saturday I went through the Dartford crossing, today noticed I hadn’t been charged so I phoned them to check. Didn’t have the phone No. so I googled Dart Charge, first number that came up was a 0903 No., being half asleep I nearly phoned it, noticed a few lines down the charge was £3.60...
