    If you stick with calor we use a ‘level control monitor’ that sticks by magnet underneath the bottle & gives accurate readings to an app, not cheap but worth it 👍🏻

    Harry and Lauren, road trip supreme, Campervan packed, they were living the dream. To Snowdonia’s peaks, with snacks in a pile, They hadn’t seen wildlife in quite a while.
    Through a dark forest, the headlights did gleam, When a deer popped out with a death-wish scheme. Harry yelled, “BRAKE!” Lauren screamed, “STEER!” The van replied, “It's too late for this, dear.”
    A bump, a thud, then silence fell flat, Harry groaned, “Well… it wasn’t a cat.” Lauren jumped out, “It’s fine, it’s just napping.” The deer, however, wasn’t quite clapping.
    So onward they drove, their vibe slightly grim, The deer-shaped memory still haunting him. And now in Shrewsbury, they’ll always appear As the campers who flattened a four-legged deer.

    Does the Coral have diesel heating, much prefer that myself. The princess seat didn’t look anywhere as princessy though, you might need to give that some strong consideration 😂 Bad luck getting the flu just before your skiing trip, hope it didn’t mess it up for you.

    • @harryandlauren
      @harryandlauren  9 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      It's not, which is a shame.. As our plans include going to the alps in the winter, so diesel would be better - but it does hold twice the gas that ours does.

      Singapore was lovely thanks, a bit of a family meet up in the East rather than them travelling back to UK to see us for Christmas. And yes, all over the bugs now finally thanks. Did take awhile for my wife - clearly woman flu is a much more serious problem than the typically more common man flu 🤒
      Good luck on the van pondering, never a simple one. We’ve had four over the years with the biggest being great when parked up and living in it but wasn’t ideal on narrow country lanes. The VW camper I have now is much more daily usable but I wouldn’t want to camp up in it with wife, two (now full size) kids and a chunky Labrador all on board.
      Hope you kick the bug into touch soon, give poor old Harry a rest.

    Is it legal to put your grey water down a water drain?

    • @EddieHulme
      @EddieHulme 8 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Whoops . No it’s not . Thats a surface water drain and grey waste should not be emptied down it . Living in Shropshire and a Telford & Wrekin there are strict rules on water disposal and not polluting water courses . I lived on farm for 20 years and council were hot on checking my septic tanks and surface water soak ways . Water from street drains goes to local streams /rivers into the Severn . So grey waste pollutes our rivers .

    And that's why I will not EVER have a van without a diesel heater. I definitely wouldn't have one with underslung gas tanks. I have never been to a fuel station that doesn't sell diesel and can't remember the last time I seen a LPG pump. Plus most stations are either giving up the pumps in favour of much more profitable EV charging points or already have done so. Why manufacturers are still building with tanks is beyond me. Bailey's first venture into building campervans ( the ENDEAVOUR ) has the truma diesel/electric for heating and hot water so much better for off grid. You cannot run the tank dry either. Also if you have an all in one or a separate tank it's quite legal to run off cheaper red diesel. Take note elddis/swift and all the other mainstream builders !!

    • @harryandlauren
