Unwelcome Chip!
Rhonda asked is anyone had a chip like this in their habitat acrylic window, and fixed it without replacing it? Two suggestions, fix yourself with a repair kit, or head straight to a windscreen repair place.

Oscar winning Idea!!!
Phillip posted: An idea for all to ponder over. It’s great when there is a low bridge.
(I have never seen this idea before, it’s brilliant and such a good idea. Congratulation Phillip- Alison)
Urban Caravan Group of Australia and NZ
Starlink Flatbed
Mark has set up his Starlink 3 in the back of the Ute. Rail from Roof Racks, can remove set up in one piece if needed. Starlink Brackets from Outcamp.
Wasted Water
Kloe asked: Where this leak was coming from? Answer – Overflow on water tank. Also not breathing. Move overflow hose higher than tank.

Modern Door!
Blair posted: So excited. Was surprised to see this keypad on the door though, not complaining.
Crusader Caravan Owners Group of Australia
Lyn posted: These flexi placemats are great for keeping the kitchen window blind free of splashes (saw this idea on another site)
Fridge Help
Alan wanted to know how to use this. It’s the vent behind the fridge and the idea is to open it up so the hot air from the fridge can escape outside. Another tip was to put some midge screen so it can stay open over night and the flying devils can’t get in.

DIY Excellence
Gavin and Sue wanted to update their Silverline. Rather than buy a new one, they gave their existing one a complete make over.
On the Move Caravan Owners Group:
Window Unstopped
Jan asked for information on the missing Stopper at the end of the window. Stephen told her to contact Mobicool Windows spare parts for a pair of End Stops.
Option RV Caravan Owners Group
Custom Made
Stone Stomper have advised they now do a model that attaches directly to the Option Stone Guard, preventing the need to remove the mudflaps, reducing the overall length so as not to need mid bar to stop sag etc.

Not a DROP!
“I need a support at the end of the lounge in the van so the cushions don’t fall off and I don’t spill my red wine.”
Don’t Waste Space
Steve found that behind this panel was – nothing! So he added shelves put hinges on the panel, and now has a slim cupboard.
OOPS!
Christine has a problem. They need to replace the water tank tap and pipe connection, snapped off at base connection. Answers, the Big Green Shed has replacement parts. Or fit stone guards to H20 tanks.
That really HURTS
Admin Mark is carefully bringing Roe back home to Qld from WA after her operation for a badly broken leg. Not quite the end to the trip they planned. Thinking of you Roe.
Water and Tears
Marion posted: And we are home. It would be fantastic to have just kept slowly going past our turn off.
Royal Flair Caravan Club Australia
Hot/Cold/Wet/Dry
Admin John likes to keep Royal Flarians up to date with the weather. With the changes that happen, it’s a big job.
Curtain Clever
Darren added bedside window curtains. Now will get some breeze on warm night.
Also sun protection for the inside of the van.
Switch Mystery
Irene was mystified and the one on the right and found out that it right turns on the HWS element.
Breakfast Anyone?
Our good mate Der Wen is famous for his minuscule breakfast. Totally minuscule as this photo shows!
