How do you hold the tarp onto the side of the awning?
I have been looking at decathlon and did a search for how to use it.

Can i ask if the boxes fitted? We have some but i am not happy with them; other half says they are okay but a perfect solution would be better.Another busy buying week after our first trip away.
'Big' purchase was a Brandrup ISOfix internal topper after reading advice on here. Purchased from the Netherlands, as pound against the Euro is strong currently (£1:€1.20).
Storage baskets for the under sink cupboard (ones I used initially are a bit too tight). I am hoping these Orthex boxes (12L & 16L respectively) from John Lewis will fit the two undersink shelves perfectly:
1st shelf (for plates, bowls, cups, glasses):

2nd shelf (for pots/pans/electric toasty maker/colander/etc):

Also, some fairy lights from Primark at @zerofour's dismay
Can you advise what the cert is for?Bike rack fitted yesterday - Just the job! Photo now Cali cleaned!

We not always take our bikes with us, but you can be sure this one is going to be part of the standard equipment! It's a foldable Micro scooter. Fits easily under the shelf in the back.
Sadly I have it bookmarked for the futureJust ordered a Thinkware F770 Dashcam. Now I just need to find the instructions made by @Loz (?), as I recall. Thought it was easier than expected ;-)
Her we had a discussion about how far it would influence the warranty if it is hardwired? What do you think?

Okay, I didn't buy it but I was bought a solid silver neck chain upon which to wear my newly acquired non-electronic key!
Purchased said key so that I NEVER AGAIN lock myself out of the van when getting up for a pee!
Picked up one of these for viewing the IPAD.

Perfect for us on the drivers seat headrest. We don't bother/need to swivel the drivers seat so perfect for the occasional viewing from the bench seat. Solid as a rock and above all can stay in situ with or without IPAD and does not rattle.

Timpsons, well some of them will if they have the blank. Do a Google search for " VW Surf Key ".Can I ask where you had the key cut, my dealer says it's not possible to have a non electronic key cut.
Yep! I was told by someone in Timpsons which shop to go into in my area as only specialist ones can do it.Timpsons, well some of them will if they have the blank. Do a Google search for " VW Surf Key ".

Yes, we have one too for the summer months, £1 in Poundland surprisingly! Works well zapping the little blighters, wasps too.You will all know that moment when you get into the top bed and look up to see your own little collection of flies and the odd mosquito being lit by your reading light. We got fed up smearing them on the headcloth and having to clean it up.
Enter the fly racquet zapper, very efficient at killing all your uninvited friends with no mess. We got ours in Go Outdoors but many places have them.

Yes even the dreaded midge!...and what of the mighty midge? Effective against these blighters too?
