I have recently been getting lots of adds for Portable Reverse Cycle Air Conditioners. They sell for around $400 and are rated at 14,000BTU. Has anyone had experience with them in the tropics?

Hi everyone. Searching the internet for suppliers of awning extensions with poles but can only seem to find suppliers from USA. Not looking at extensions for end of awning but only for the main part of the awning extending from the side of the caravan. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi all, As many have, I get the usual black streaks down the paintwork after a good rain on the van. In particular the older rubbers on the windows seem to be the main culprit. Over the past 12months or so, I've tried a few varying products without being overly happy with either their success or price. So...
