    I think I would take a more circumspect view of this until more details and clearer responses from both the government and the RNLI themselves. This report originates from the mail! If the mail told me there were seven days next week I would count them on a calander first!

    For future reference keep an eye on both Lidl and Aldi, at least once a year they have a week of camping and caravan tackle and this includes their own branded portapotti's at a very good price. These actually are rebranded thetfords and serve admirably as a complete set of spares and a "reserve" tank although a tad smaller than standard.

    Not a huge Woodfordes fan (apart from Norfolk Nog) :default_icon_e_biggrin:

    but saw this up here in flat cap land. Is it Nelsons Revenge re-badged I wonder? 

    Where abouts in the civillised world did you encounter this brew??

    Shhhh!! Just don't say nowt about it 😉

    Not exactly the brightest of ideas but that is up to you obviously! Eddy is right about the three way fridges, you can only use the "room sealed" variety of which there are very few. The Waeco/Isotherm/Shoreline are the way to go and be safe!

    My Old Man, god rest his soul, bought a Cossack which was the "Lada" of motorbikes in that it was the Russian version of the older BMW R71  and sidecar which was a German military bike. To say it made a throaty racket was an understatement! It served its purpose admirably as I recall and didn't seem to break down as such although it was regularly in bits in the kitchen and garden. Used to love going out on it mostly in the sidecar with my brother but occasionally on the pillion for a treat.

    I had an early Citroën Xantia 1.9TD and I loved it. The hydroelastic suspension still amazed folk if I pulled up alongside, switched of and the car sank! Obviously the reverse also amused folk. It was a lively enough performer but its top quality was the ride comfort, especially for passengers. Did lots of miles and spent quite a while with a mate in Pyrenees Atalantique. Made me popular a Yorkshire man coming to France in a Xantia. Loved the bars over there and had a right royal time. The only problem I ever had with the car was down to a 60p plastic clip the gave way.  This clip held the car body down on the chassis at the rear at the limit of the suspension. The back end came up and bounced around like a superball whilst driving. Looked like a drag racing convert! Didn't think much of the follow up C5 so went for a Skoda VRS (the first version) which was a lively drive!
