Tap was 300yds away so a 10L would at least keep us fit I suppose.

Bought an Aquaroll...blasphemy! but storing it is another problem
You just need a longer hose ;)

We had a long (4 day) weekend away recently and didn't even use half of the contents of the water tank. They all vary in size, I suppose, and we did have access to external showers - and there were just two adults.

Same here just 2 adults. Still trying to teach other half to be more conservative with water. Don't know what she does with it all as I'm away most of the daytime in competitions yet lights flashing by 2nd day. Think its an 80ltr tank (not sure if thats considered small) then have to also empty the grey tank (100ltr?) and fill up again. Surely should last longer than that.

I use something similar to one of these which fits snugly into the filler hole on the moho and a 20 litre jerrycan
Broken Link Removed


We use the 90° guttering elbow aswell? makes filling with a watering can a doddle!?

Ours has the Truma pump thing, Can see lifiting an Aquaroll to pour isn't an option. We use a 10ltr can with a tap for drinking water

Already started buying bits people have mentioned.

First purchase was those Fiamma awning rail hangers
Next maybe one those Bialetti? coffee gizmos

It is called moka pot. Lots of makers out there. I bought one for about a tenner from TK Max not long ago. It was an eight cup one, but that was referring to Espresso shot cups, so about one and a half mugs. Makes very good coffee. Almost every Italian household has one I am told.

I aspire to own one of those - one day

The Belgium Hymer dealer didn’t like them Robert. He said out of 25 vans half have come back to him and had cassettes retrofitted. It might be because parts for this particular system are obsolete though. One of the first things we will check at handover, I’m sure a plumber once told me to use an empty banana skin in a toilet to check the flush....but I might have dreamt that!!

A shower head with a trigger -- cuts down the amount of water used when showering, which is very useful when wilding. Search for 'shattaf' and you can find some very cheap ones, designed for bidets!

a plumber friend of mine was singing the praises of a shataf. when he explained what it was, I told him where to shove it....."that's the idea, you got it" he said

Eco Camel shower head is a must.

I just bought the Moreko gas tank remote monitoring system, it is re branded in the USA as AP Systems, I bought it on Amazon.com and with the shipping ad import duties is £72 delivered. The picture shows 1 sensor and the monitor (you don't really need the monitor as its all on the app but handy anyway, oh apparently the monitor is set/pre programmed for a 20lb bottles so it will not start counting down until that level is reached for those with huge bottles, I have 11kg which is about perfect). Now if you read the first question asked and some replies you will notice that the system shown actually comes with TWO SENSORS, so a bargain, IF you are a bit wary but want one then I am happy to be the guinea pig and show you what I receive in a few days time as I need 2 and just ordered this (y)

Amazon deal with all the import and tax issues including delivery charges, the final price you see is what you pay, no hidden extras, half the price of the twin system sold on ebay from Germany.

We have a couple of Diablo toastie makers (I got them from Debenhams in a sale, years ago), and so got something similar to those to be able to make square toasties, but found that they didn't work for us in our previous MoHo. I can't remember the exact problem, but I think we couldn't balance them safely on the hob because of where it was positioned.

So we still use the Diablos (and now I've bought a suitably sized pastry cutter to cut the contents to size ;) )

Tugger now Motorhome
Titanium tent pegs for hard standings when using the much hated Vango Awning (SWMBO insists on an erection for stays of 7 days or longer - teehee) - can be driven straight into concrete with suitable blunt instrument and if I can get them out they emerge unscathed. Not cheap at nearly a fiver each but don't bend - ever.

I think it’s got to be a 10 litre watering can £5 @ B and Q. No I have changed my mind it’s joining Motorhome fun as it’s so very informative friendly mostly :) And a good place to be with so many like minded people who make it what it is .
Will up that ,,mine is a 24 litre..top trumps.BUSBY??
