Over the period of all that rain I didn’t really have a chance to walk over the sodden lawn and check out the camper.
Once the rain had stopped I was checking in case a small furry object had taken a fancy to a dry night’s sleep… glancing at the n/s window (Talisman ‘04) there appeared to be another horizon, there was almost 2 inches of water in the window! So after a slight panic I drilled a small hole to release the cascade and allowed it to drain. Thankfully there was no internal evidence of water ingress. Checking the window I found a small crack twixt pusher (what a stupid fixture designed to exert pressure on the joint when the seal is stuck!) and window edge which flowed down the outer moulding and in via what I would assume to be capillary action. I now have a dirtyish corner and a mass of condensation to get rid of. Removed the small bungs which are on the halfway line for some unknown reason, and after an hours tapping have shifted a lot of the condensation in big droplets via the drilling. Cured the crack so it won’t refill if the weather breaks! Advice needed regarding the remaining condensation… and grubby marks.
