Re: best day to visit national rally

i'm almost looking forward to some rain. they say we will get rain this weekend, apart from a few showers we haven't had rain since the start of november. bad for the dams but it makes keeping the morry clean easier, it just gets dusty

best day to visit national rally

the national rally is held over a weekend from what i can see, makes sense. is it better for a visitor to go on saturday or sunday? wife says i can take one day from our holiday and i want to make the most of it. it's a one time only thing for next year.

Re: traveller door handle position

confusion reigns. i was wondering because i'm going to fit the hinge o/h kits to all four hinges to hopefully fix the sagging, not quite square doors. and whilst thats going on the rods don't seem to be a good fit so the whole lot's going to get sorted and this is the perfect time to change the hand...

Re: traveller doors

thanks guys, that was the answer i hoped for, adjust it. the door has to come off as the paint has failed, it's gone like crazy paving on the surface. the rear edge sticks out from the body about 1/2" when it's closed, with a bit of luck the panel beater will sort it when they put the door back...

Re: places to visit

if visiting around oxford, nuffield place is nice http://www.nationaltrust.org.uk/nuffield-place/ the nuffield needle in cowley close to the old factory is ok if you are driving past but not worth a big detour.
