CMC Poolsbrook

 Well here we are sat on a very sunny,for a change,CMC Poolsbrook in Derbyshire surrounded by screaming kids and barking dogs.

The kids are tolerable,it is half term I suppose and it will be the first fresh air they've seen since last August,but what is it with dog owners ?

Watched one yesterday morning depositing a "parcel" right outside someone's awning,yes she picked it up but it hardly helps the toast and marmalade go down.

Of course it will never happen,too much money lost,but I would ban dogs from CMC sites.

Anyway rant over.

The Cadiz has popped up a problem in that the centre Heki roof light string has come adrift and a piece of plastic broke off in the process.

Watched a You Tube video where some chap reckoned it was an easy fix,hmmm.........

Think I will summon "my man" at some point.

Eventually I am thinking of replacing the Whale water inlet with one of the Easi-Slide ones as the flap on ours is buggered and held in place with a zip tie.

Been trying to find out if the Cadiz is a microswitched or a pressure system and it's like pulling teeth,neither Bailey or Whale will give a straight answer.

I think it is a pressure system as can't see any wires protruding from under the taps but would like to know for sure.

Everything else is fine though,bought a moisture meter a week or two back,only a cheap one so have been passing time checking for damp,as you do,happy to note it is all in the 12% or so bracket.

Anyway before I go for a walk with SWMBO a little tip,or "wrinkle" as Capt.Mainwaring says.

In my van toolbox I always carry a tube of Hard As Nails which is only a pound from Poundland.

Used it a day or so ago to fill a gap in a piece of wheel arch trim and it did an excellent job,worth keeping a tube at hand.

Anyway  off now to do some dog crap dodging around the lake.
