While driving the truck I sometimes refuel at large BP servos and see plenty of trailers parked up waiting for a prime mover to hitch up and take it away. If it's ok for a long haul driver to use the facilities why not a caravan GN? Mos...

(Preview)
Hi, Both Les and I have always wondered, but we were never sure if you can use a gas BBQ (like the Weber Q) when there is a fire ban for that day or season?
