So why did they not just say "flat breed (bread)" instead o showing aff..

Bread, good bacon, and a wipe of butter is all you need for a quality bacon sandwich (Or roll). Sauces are for children who require to make something to taste of something else. Normally sugar.

By contrast our most used and best bangs for buck device is a flexible builders trug - the sort of thing you get from garden centres . We use it to collect the dirty plates and stuff before washing , collecting grey waste (not with plates ) and only when I have enough rear height . Collecting fresh water which I can pour direct into the tank (if I can be arsed to use a hose ) and somewhere to store our wellies to keep the garage dry and clean. Trugs - you know it makes sense

Bought one, it was hopeless

OMG... Wait till I show Mrs Poppycamper this... She will be positively mortified...How on earth can anybody put a sock on their foot WITHOUT ironing it first...No the sock silly.... Beggars believe!!!

From this are we safe to assume that when she irons your Y-fronts you aren't wearing them???? Or should we start calling you 'hot fuzz'?

 

[Minxy]

Easier to clean than a watering can Or the inside of a hose pipe ?

As soon as we use a hose pipe by letting some of the water out before filling our tank we are 'cleaning' the inside so its not difficult (certainly easier than scrubbing a trug), same with our 5L slimline water carriers which are always flushed out before they are filled with water to go in the tank. As for a watering can, I can't say how easy it is to clean one as I've never used one for our MH fresh water tank filling, however for those that do it might be an idea to have one specifically for MH use so that anyone who is tempted to use their home one in which they sometimes mix liquid fertilizer doesn't cause giant killer bacteria and bugs to grow in the fresh water tank which crawl out of the taps in the night and feed on them ... especially if the MHer is called Seymour!

Joking aside, if you don't drink from the fresh water tank at all, nor use it for brushing teeth etc, then using a single trug for many things may be okay but not something I'd do as we do drink the water which hasn't had any adverse effect on us that I'm aware of.

I am so sorry.
I am flitting between posts and sites.
Have you put it up for sale / auction / donation or whatever.
I am considering buying such a thing.
And possibly a free standing wind break, so if any others for sale, I am interested.
Seen nowt in the classifieds lately.

Nope not yet, gotta get it out and have a shuftie, will look next week and let you know.

and a bottle of brown sauce which of course we will never use as it's only there in case we meet up with uncouth Northerner's that we offer a bacon sarnie too or they have run out.

Uncouth Northerners HOW DARE YOU !!!!! we are the salt of the earth and another thing WHATS wrong with brown sauce it's the only thing to have on a bacon butties NOT the poncey ketchup you SOUTHERNERS put on your sarnies

I'll have you know we real southerners have sliced tomato and mayonnaise in our bacon sandwiches.

Haggis and bacon here, north of the so-called Northerners.

You're all 'wimps' ... the only way to truly enjoy it is to have it naked!

No sauce, relishes, posh fruit etc, nowt, just a good bread bap and good bacon pure bliss ... the ONLY extra we sometimes have is to lightly fry the inside surfaces of the bap in the bacon fat to give a nice 'crispiness' to it, that's it ... add in a nice hot mug of tea and I'm in heaven! This was the ONE thing that I wanted to be able to taste again after my Bells Palsy episode in April and by heck the first one didn't half taste wonderful and subsequently ones have too ...

The trouble is when you are on a site with the safari room up and the family staying and the hosepipe won't reach the tap. The watering can is not up to collecting enough water and there is no way to get rid of the grey without the aqua roll and waste hog.

Same here ,but there is only 2 of us
Its a daily job with us

 

[KiwiKampers]

1. We carried a jerry can of fuel around Australia for six months ‘cos we were afraid of running out in the outback. Never needed it.
2. We carried a Cadac barbecue (for want of a better word) around the UK for six months. Used it once and spent more time cleaning it than cooking on it. Used it a second time and it collapsed, melted the gas hose and came close to setting fire to the van. Never used it again and couldn’t find anywhere to dispose of it for fear of someone recovering it and killing themselves using it.
3. We still carry a corkscrew, although I can’t remember the last time we had a bottle of wine with a cork in it. It could come in useful for getting stones out of horses hooves.

We don’t drink water from the taps at home let alone the moho . If it isn’t sparking and filtered though a 1000ft of rock then we boil it.

I regularly meet up with a group of tuggers & end up pitched for up to a fortnight. An Aquaroll & pump is easier than moving.

mayonnaise !!!!

Mayonnaise !!!!!!!!! heathen

 

[Rimswell Wanderer]

Spare wingmirror glass, spare water pump, the Allo Allo complete box set, and a bottle of brown sauce which of course we will never use as it's only there in case
we meet up with uncouth Northerner's that we offer a bacon sarnie too or they have run out.

I’m a Northerner but certainly not uncouth

Petrol generator. Tried it once in the New Forest to test it. Decided we could not stand the noise so guessed it would brass off others. So sold it. However an EFOY was useful occasionally. The most useful was when the engine alternator stopped charging returning from southern France. We had stopped for a cuppa and my ears picked up this faint purring sound which I recognised. A glance at the display indicated charging at 5 amps. That got us home. Today smaller van so EFOY stored under the stairs at home. Happy daze.

My ACSI card for the last two years ???

 

[Ade S]

I feel all your pains, my wife is always buying “stuff for the Motorhome” we have a Cadac never assembled, an air awning which I assume will fit never taken out of the bag, a shopping trolley that lives under the settee in the lounge end and never turned a whee. The list goes on, thanks for reminding me everyone

Stay Safe

Snow chains, pyramid grip kings, a few 'just in case' tools. Carried them when full-timing, glad they were never called into action.

 

[Rocking Rivet]

Insurance for wife to drive motorhome!!!

I got the wife but as some use now and again,

Plastic wine glasses that even kept filled to brim... would blow away.

Clearly you’re not drinking fast enough!

 

[SpeedyDux]

A folding double chair / sofa - still in the garage. Used once when we had a BBQ in the garden.

A solar shower, and a 12v pump that fits a bucket, bought "just in case".

Also had one of those useless flat hoses on a reel that leaks, straight to the Tip.

Seem to be the 4th Funster who has a travel iron that's never been used while travelling.

On the contrary.. one gulp...one pour...one gulp...one pour..to keep glass full...

 

[G-RMPS]

Fifth iron. It’s going out of the van!

 

[Ingwe]

See your one bucket and raise you one bucket. Never used either of them.

Use our collapsible 5 litre bucket a lot. For regular draining of waste water when parked up for a while. Fits easily under waste tape and a couple of buckets every day keeps waste water to manageable levels. Built into the daily routine, not a problem.

 

[RowleyBirkinQC]

Another unused iron here too.

 

[GMLS]

Safari room - great idea not practical unless static for long periods
Motorhome cover. Too much trouble for little actual gain
Mud tracks - but happy if I never use them
