Can someone please help with suggestions to keep bugs and dust out of your van.

I am trying to save on my power bill at home, my problem is this: every time I open the fridge door the light is on, how do I turn the light off once the door is closed? Now some smart bugga is going to say remove the bulb, but that is stupid, if I do that I will not be able to see in the fridge when I open the door. Als...

Hi all! I'm now at my sisters, after spending a few extra days..unintentionally..with friends in Bundaberg. I came down sick, and just couldn't get out of bed.
