T6.1 Ocean 204
Slight issue on last but one night in Scotland. We decided to keep roof up at night on out T6.1 Ocean and simply close bed down and pull shutter for some quiet; we sleep downstairs. Go to pull bed down and loud crack noise...........wife had left a book on little shelf above wardrobe and as bed came down the leverage caused the plastic hinge to snap!!! Lifted bed and it slid sideways and took huge heave to get back in position and shut as was resting against bellows and scissor mech. Thankfully managed to shut so we were Hobbits for a day.

Spoke to dealers and told little porky - it's being replaced under warranty yay!

Ask the dealer to replace both sides with the new metal version.
 
At what point did you and your wife start speaking again?
:Iamsorry
 
Oh within about 10 mins - she aplogised for putting book up there but I also for not checking when pulling bed down :)

You weren't on Arran or Kintyre last week by any chance?? There was a fortana red Ocean following us around??
 
Sadly not. We do love Arran, Seal Sands is brilliant.
