As I removed the front end cap from the roller so as to be able to slide the awning out of the groove there was a buzz as the spring unwound. Now I have to reassemble the roller.

FISH FINGERS
(Preview)
How do you wash the smell of fish bait and (hopefully) freshly caught fish off your hands? In the past we used soap and water and rubbed with a lemon - but the latter is not always available.

TRUCK WASH

Rod often has dirty and greasy clothes from working. I have found truck wash in the washing machine does wonders. We have a 5 litre container and you can use around about a 1/2 cup full if really dirty.

Hello All As many a fellow caravaner knows the manufacturers do things on the cheap.

Where to store your hitch bars without getting grease over things.
(Preview)
I've always had a problem of where to store the hitch bars without the ends getting grease over things when I get to the site. By reversing the bars the other way and hanging them just under the A frame on a sling solved the problem. If I'm in a area that could be a bit suspect I run the high tensile wire thro...

Does your Fridge need defrosting

Was defrosting our Waeco fridge this morning and remembered the problem we had when we first started out. The fridge used to leak water from "somewhere" when travelling, onto the floor. I realised that it didn't defrost itself like the one at home, and if I keep defrosting it weekly there'...
