We have decided to call it a day for this year in the van.
We should have been at CMC Chapel Lane this seek for the NEC show but of course that has gone.
We had CMC Barnard Castle booked for this week plus CMC Poolsbrook in a couple of weeks but as we appear to be in a high risk Covid area it's not worth the hassle sadly.
Anyway I have shut the van down for winter and thought I would list what I have done in order to help newbies who may be thinking of doing the same,old hands will have their own routine I am sure.
Not everything will appeal to everybody so you can take your pick.
Bear in mind that our van is in storage.
1.Road wheels removed and replaced with winter wheels,wheels taken home and cleaned etc.
2.Water system drained ,I use a Floe.Don't forget toilet flush as well.
3.Toilet cassette removed,taken home and cleaned with Thetford Cassette Cleaner.
4.Door/locker locks given a squirt of lubricant.
5.Window and door seals treated with silicone spray.
6.All perishable food and liquids removed.
7.All sheets etc.taken home to wash.
8.All cupboard and locker doors left open to allow air to circulate.
9.Cushions upended for same reason as above.
10.Some people place condensation crystals around the van,we don't and have never had a problem.
Here's looking forward to march next year and let's hope things have looked up a bit.
