Gennie fuel
(Preview)
Hi everybody. We have been thinking about a generator, theres always a generator stall at the caravan/camping shows where they claim to sell the latest and quietest etc. My question is, what kind of fuel do they use? And how do you carry it? Mr D isnt keen on carrying jerry-cans of fuel.

I believe UHF radios are changing to 77 channell which is why there are some good deals going round. My question is do we need 77 or will the current radios still work on the channells that they work on now?

Myrtle has been cut and polsihed to an inch of her life. Looking very shiny. Have also stripped off most of the ugly brown stripes down the side which were tacky and broken. Thank you to Ken Thomas for all your hard work today. Can only get one photo up at a time. Tried more and it wouldn't go through.
