  1. Mapbook of Spain assistance required

    Sorry if this is a daft question but we’re stumped. We’re in Spain using our trusty old giant fold out road map, which is out of date, very tatty and fights back when being refolded. What we want is an A4 spiral mapbook, we have one of France which is very user friendly. The problem is we...
  2. Help, brake problem Roses Spain.

    We have developed a strange grinding noise on brakes. Can anyone recommend a garage somewhere around Roses in Spain please?
  3. Problem with Satellite Finder

    Could anyone please offer any advice before we fork out for a replacement? We have a Teleco Voyager Digimat system. The satellite finder (DSF80E) has become faulty, well out of warranty, and we're looking at about £136 (cheapest we've found so far) to replace it. Using the satellite finder...
  4. Washing Liquid - No Rinsing Required

    Has anyone tried this liquid? It's called "Soak" and is available from Amazon in several fragrances and sizes. It's a bit pricey but you only need a very small amount per wash, no rinsing required. I was thinking this would be great for our next long trip, reducing the amount of water needed...

  7. Ski-ing and wilding in the Alps, any tips?

    My OH has decided to take off alone in the van for a few weeks ski-ing in the French Alps in January. I have decided that my ski-ing days are over and it's also not really suitable for the dog, so I am staying home, probably worrying myself sick! We would like to know if anyone has experienced...
  8. LED 'Mood' Lighting

    The LED spotlights in our lounge area are a little too bright (starring on Mastermind comes to mind). Has anyone else had this problem? I was thinking of trying coloured transparent film, nail polish or maybe highlighter pens to try and diffuse them a bit. Any ideas? :idea:
  9. Replacing window blind cord

    Can anyone offer advice please? A couple of cords have snapped/worn out on the window blinds of our 1999 Hymer. We have removed the blind frame and partially dismantled it but are a bit stumped as to how to proceed with the re-cording. Does anyone have any experience of doing this, or have a...
  10. Have Sticker - Will Travel

    I have put one sticker on the windscreen and the other on the back window, thanks Phil, great job. Ferry booked for next Thursday to Dunkirk, then on to Portugal and the Alps. I hope I don't become obsessed with looking for stickers on other vans, though it would be really nice to meet a few...
  11. Gas Struts/Hymer

    We had to have the gas struts replaced while we were in France last year but have found that the gas has leaked out, making it difficult to operate the bed mechanism. Does anyone know if these can be "successfully" refilled and, if so, is there anywhere in the North East that would do this? We...
  12. New Defra Rules

    HURRAY! The new Defra rules have come into effect. We now only need to have our dog treated for tapeworm, 1 - 5 days before travelling back to the UK, which is a much improved system, we also now have a choice of countries to have this done. I would be interested to hear from anyone who has...
  13. Fridge not working at altitude

    Hi, can anyone help with our fridge problem. We have recently spent time in the French Alps and found that if we are not hooked up and at a high altitude, our fridge refuses to work on the LPG gas. This prevented us from wildcamping at some fabulous places as we had to either find a site to...
