I have to applaud your efforts because they are no nonsense and an easy to understand instructions , oh and one big thing you’re not the mr caveman approach that I used to, but the disaster that I had was when I cockup regarding the waste pipe. It was a particularly rainy day and unbeknownst to me I broke it when I was reversing so upon my wife finding out she demanded that I replace it asap, but you’ve probably guessed that it didn’t go as planned, I was getting cold in a fit stupidity yanked too hard and I proceeded to get soaked whatever came out of the tank. The only thing that I’ve always done is to flush the tank after every trip and use sterilisation tabs anyhoo it was a great video and thank you. 🙏👍

You’re a lot more clued in than I am because of myself forgetting almost everything I now have 3 outside barbecues, two sets of outside chairs,four 12 kg gas bottles which now take up space in my shed which is at least 100 metres away from the cottage but when you bare in mind that my jalopy is a converted 7.5 ton ex military truck anyhoo please stay lucky and happy trails from north east Scotland. 👍🙏

Really enjoyed your video. I love the motorhome you have; I have been looking at the make of motorhome you have as they really seem to have a lot of seating which I really like. Very helpful video for someone who has not yet bought a motorhome but has been researching it and watching videos. I was quite anxious about how you set it up but you make it look very easy. Thank you

I live close to the Twinwoods Festival site in Clapham, Bedfordshire (1940s & 50s vintage festival for music and dance) where 100s of motorhomes and caravans all met up last weekend. Funny to think they all set up as you have just shown us, probably with the same amount of cake and drink!

Hi both. Another great video and some useful tips as well as making us smile. Will definitely be putting an elastic band round the toilet roll, save our washroom looking like the Andrex puppy has been in! A tip of my own. We recently bought some hotel coat hangers from Amazon, the ones with the loop that you thread onto the rail. For the first time ever we arrived on site and our clothes weren't in a pile at the bottom of the wardrobe! Hubby is very jealous of Keith's sweetie stash btw! Have a great trip.😊

Sorry to be negative but I've tried Solbio toilet fluid, it doesn't do what it says on the label, Yes it smells nice at first but after a short while it does not mask smells once you open the cassette slide even if you only do No1's in the loo we ended up using more fluid than recommended so it's not economical either, in my opinion it does not break down the solid material or toilet paper as good as other competitors environmentally toilet fluids, emptying the toilet cassette was the worst experience I have ever had
@keithandmichele Жыл бұрын
Hi Andrew & Karen. When we filmed this video we had only used the Solbio a couple of times for short trips. We have to agree with you that emptying the cassette with it in, was not pleasant, subsequently we have reverted back to the original Thetford fluids. Hope your both well, sending our best wishes, Keith & Michele
