We have just come back from a weeks tour around the Cotswolds. One of the sites we stayed at, to the right of us a Hymer A Class with a large silver screen covering the all the cab windows. It was attached to the van with enough rope to rig a sailing ship. Opposite, and to the other side of us, two van conversions. Again all of the cab windows were covered in silver screens. A bit further down from us a coachbuilt, again a silver screen covering the complete cab. In fact one coachbuilt even had a silver cover over all of the front of the vehicle. When were cosy engines a requirement in the Cotswolds? Not once were any of these screens taken off of the vans, in all the time we were there. I sat there with my cup of tea, with the sunshine pouring through our Motorhome windows, admiring the scenery, and thought why? We spent a lot of money on our Motorhome so we could sit in it and look out of the very large A Class windows at the scenery. It came installed with a heater to keep us warm in the cold. It has blinds which open and close to let the sunshine in, or the darkness out. On the very odd occasion we might get a tiny drop of condensation, a quick wipe with a cloth, and all gone. We never covered the front of our caravan when we were Tuggers, so please tell me, what would I want to cover the whole of the front of my Motorhome for? Or, having only been a motorhomer for two years, does something go on behind silver screens that only seasoned motorhomes know about!
