Been promising a sort out, we leave for France tomorrow via Vanbitz who will at the very least have the garage doors open, so timely effort to minimise the embarrassment

Having wandered around in awe at some garages at meets and rallies, if anybody might see in ours we are very discrete on opening the door as little as needed, or even delaying the need to be in there :)

This is why

so out it all came

sorted, a good bit is critical equipment, an awful lot isn't o_O

to many of you it may actually not look a lot different, but is was about to rain and I have a holiday to go on tomorrow :)(y) but it really is a lot better :):)

IMG_1953.JPG


this final shot is a good example of why it was cluttered

on the right a 'bargain' Omni direction aerial I bought to replace the directional aerial on our iBoost that we rarely use o_O

in the middle some kind of diagnostic gadget I 'invested' in when we had the intermitent issues 18 months ago, was I really ever likely to use it, was I chuff o_O

lastly, what on earth is a descant recorder doing in there o_Oo_O

interrogated Bev on her return, all she can think is its there from a WI trip she did in our MH 3 years ago

we now weigh a good bit less as well :)(y)


edit - I didn't tidy the shelf on the right at all, more treasure on there still to discover

It looks like you have gone from utter chaos to very slightly tidier chaos...

Just sayin....:imoutahere:

Hi.
Don't want to be picky,but Why?.... Why take a Green wheelie bin ? Can you just imagine the trouble you cause some Refuse collection driver,when he is questioned about why a wheelie bin on his route,was tracked going across the channel on a Ferry......? You are a Cad sir,and a Bounder!!

I was right!.:rolleyes: The bigger the locker the more "Crap" you can carry.(n) I emptied out the basements of the R-V when I sold it, and half filled a Double Garage!.(y) That was mostly "Crap" too!:D2

"If it`s NOT a tool which fits the current vehicle,;) AND it has not been used in the last 12 months, then it is "surplus". NWOV!!. (Not Wanted On Voyage) (y)

This is what it could look like ( only joking lol ) I wish mine did View attachment 146991
If that is the back wall which I think it is, then there is going to an almighty crashing noise and equally big clear up when all those unrestrained box keep going during an emergency stop.

good observation, it might only do one trip, but we think we will need it to fit the safari room as it is about 2.9m high in the corners

will see if the old caravan step which we always carry will do the job, the some more to leave beind

yes to unrestrained, don't really think it could break out of the garage unless we had a massive incident, when the garage contents will be the least of my worries :)(y)

Filling a garage is exactly like filling my trailer. Two thirds full and it looks great and we should stop there; but then the last third gets junked on top of everything else and it's chaos.
