I Am Considering Carrying Some String In My Hymer And Need Advice...

[JJ]

How long do you think it should be?

[Poohbear]

Twice the distance from the end to the middle

Are you having problems finding your way back to the van.

 

[Larrynwin]

Sounds a ropy idea

 

[mariner]

It's simple, it needs to be long enough to be useful, but not too long, so it's always getting tangled up!

Silly Twine

 

[Janine]

Confucius he say that man who collects pieces of string will, one day, have a ball

No.

[Wildman]

depends are you planning a long drop or a short one.

 

[Gromett]

Twice the distance from the end to the middle

Bugger, too quick for me, I was going to say that

Are you going back to basics with your communication methods.

Using string?

JJ

 

[mariner]

I think you're just stringing us along.

 

[Boycie]

Your stringing us along.

Sorry beat me to it.

 

[rosalan]

Just long enough to go around your ham, with a bit left over to tie a bow.

Seeing as you are male, I doubt you can measure anyway ... so if you think the string is six inches, remember it is really three.

 

[Mel]

Is that not part of a Hymer tool kit

Controversial!

I love people who exaggerate

[Fireman Sam]

If you get four pieces you could form a string quartet.

Can't picture you in a G String

 

[Enword]

I got a theory on this !

 

[berni109]

Alan Davies discovers that answering that question is much harder than he originally thought after visiting mathematician Marcus du Sautoy to help him find an answer. However, this creates more questions, which requires a trip to a place dedicated to measurement, the National Physics Laboratory.

Finding out the exact length of the string proves even more troublesome when Marcus proposes the string could be infinitely long, thanks to the theory of fractals. After leaving Marcus, Alan visits a physics teacher to see if measuring the string in atoms can help him find an answer. However, this means exploring Quantum Mechanics.

Alan goes to a lab to explore the theory of Quantum Mechanics in more detail to see if his string can be in two places at once, confusing him even further. Still no closer to an answer Alan is introduced to the theory that his string may have multiples lengths at the same time, all with the help of a stuffed cat. Alan doesn't believe Quantum Mechanics is important on a basic scale, but photosynthesis and the ability to smell might just change his mind.

If Alan was to find the most accurate way of measuring his string he could theoretically create a black hole. Trying to find the solution to this question has been a philosophical journey for Alan, but he still visits Marcus du Sautoy to tell him his personal answer.

Not a question I have ever had to solve but I shall watch this thread with interest as the solution is sure to be useful at some future point.
Just a thought JJ, have you checked the Hymer manual as it covers most problems we owners face? The chapter headed 'Sarkasmus und Ironie' may offer guidance.

 

[Stephen & Jeannie]

He probably is doing major repairs to his Solex unicycle !

Are you sure you don't need baler twine instead?

 

[JJ]

Seeing as you are male, I doubt you can measure anyway ... so if you think the string is six inches, remember it is really three.

JOY!

REALLY...

[JJ]

Brilliant berni109!

[magicsurfbus]

According to string theory:

Broken Link Removed

So there's your answer (including an allowance for movan's theory of small string correction).

 

[JJ]

Only (certain) Funsters could reduce a serious discussion about the length of string need to be carried in a motorhome to smutty stuff about sex...

The rest of you are displaying enlightening, and creative, and highly amusing answers!

Thank you (all).
