Two elderly women were out driving in a large car. Both of the women could barely see over the dashboard. As they were cruising along they came to an intersection.

My question is should I adjust the brake controller to be actively on when descending a stee...

Ok if you are 4'5" :) I have recent purchased a new 16.67-5 Jayco Journey Outback and my first project was to rectify this by extending the shower head from the hose with a length of PVC pipe and a couple of screw fittings - all from B...

We'll be taking our time to get there, but Greens is on the list for a stop-over while we tour...

Never a dull moment in caravan life. The other day I was packing up my Windsor van to put in storage for a fortnight whilst visiting family. I tried to disconnect the power cord from the side of the van where it plugs in only to find it was stuck fast. There were some black marks inside the transparent cover...
