I quite like oddball places to stay, although your fellow guests are likely to be 'meedja' types oft seen braying about their square houses on Grand Designs.

Out of interest, does a Commer looks sad or happy to you Rich :D

your glue will be with you tomorrow BTW so I'm going with happy on that one at least,
as I say the only thing this adhesive can't cope with is constant vibration (like glueing a speaker up to a wall with it)

cold/hot anything else it seems fine

Commers look contented :D

Goody as my panel arrived today via argos ebay collection.

Got the gas it system out of big camper to fit in the demount now - jigsaw heaven tomorrow as the locker gains 3 inches in height.

and my trailer light socket has broken, well corroded and then broken so off with the tow ball as i need a new carrier as well - not what I needed this week.

But my new driving license did arrive in 5 day so I don't have to take the dead sea scrolls version

I have to confess though, we did go glamping once it was expensive and worth every penny

I'll look forward to see how this turns out.

Looks a much better option for European travel.
