SWMBO has come back with a step for the passenger side of the MOHO as she is getting on a bit and doesn't like a bunk up in public .....

Just need a length of string to attached to it, so she can reel it in before closing the door before we drive off. She tells me she's okay with getting out due to the sliding technique she's developed.

exactly at the moment what I use, ( sadly sciatica at the moment)
Was going to get a litter picked grab thing! So can grab the step once in the van, saves hubby running round each time, then place fold up step behind my seat, have yet to try it..but 🤞

MH newbie but we owned a caravan previously.
Just bought a pack of face masks. Didn't realise till we received Brittany Ferries pre-sailing email that they were still compulsory in enclosed public areas on the ship (French law apparently). One lives and learns.

What always worried me with small vehicles is when I stop & the lorry doesn't . Far more chance in a bigger vehicle.

Bought one of those C80 GPS digital speedo displays. Notwithstanding the instruction leaflet, try as I might, I cannot amend the date from GMT. Still just so long as it gives me a clear KPH display for my forthcoming trip to Annecy...

Have a Amazon account and never thought of looking there. As for fitting, you obviously don't know me, if it's a wire no chance.
it simply plugs into your OBD port bottom of the fuse box normally and only fits one way round

if you can’t fit this you shouldn’t be driving lol 🤣

i Have Silver Screens, and during the colder months it reduces the condensation to zero, they take less than two mins to put on, but they do a damn good job,,,that’s in addition to the remis blinds already fitted,,👍

They prevent condensation as already mentioned and obviously provide insulation so the cab area doesn't get cold thus when you're sitting there you don't freeze.

We find them useful too for when we've got an early-ish start/going to the tunnel etc as we don't have to waste time waiting for the screen to clear which takes a lot longer than putting the screens away.

They are also a lot better at keeping the sun/heat out than fitted Remis blinds which is important for us with three pooches.

Being new to the game (relatively).
Not had issues re condensation as yet. Only been on sites with EHU so heating internally not been an issue.
I am mostly up and about before daybreak so light not an issue and the remis blinds block out enough light that it dosn't bother Mrs Bob whilst she does lay in a bit.
As for heat, could see the issue on really hot days, especially in Europe.
Having spent decades in an area where the heat is incessant and daily in the 40c++ we have sort of adapted to it.
Interesting though.

The issue of condensation is massively increased the colder it gets outside, the warmer it is inside, and the amount of breathing you do. I think the problem will be more obvious when you’ve done some cold nights away 👍🏻
