I'm starting to panic, mildly. We have 1 and 3/4 11kg bottles of propane gas and that has always done us when we've been to France for 6 weeks or lesis, since we haven't needed heating and we usually have EHU. It's just occurred to me that we will probably spend 6 days going down from Calais to Marjal and 6 days back, when we are likely to need heating, plus we will need heating at Marjal. It's quite possible that we will run out. Can I just ask, is it likely that we will be able to get replacement bottles in Spain, or is there a simple system we could get when we are there should it be necessary. Obviously, one that is not too expensive? :Eeek:

You will not get UK bottles in France or Spain.

The only ( dodgy ) solution looks to be one of the filler adaptors off ebay.

vwallan should be along to tell you how.

I suggest you only use the Calor for the trip there and back.. should be enough for that if your frugal..

as soon as you get to Marjal you get a Spanish bottle and regulator and keep the Calor in reserve.. plenty of folk there will be able to advise and help with a bottle ..
