Jo@Haydn Alarms

I decided last week to buy a TM1 engine temp monitor from Haydn Alarms so I placed the order on Thursday night and the parcel was waiting for me when I got home from work on Friday, opened it up and it's a TM2, the wrong one. I emailed Jo, got a response straight away and the TM1 arrived an hour ago...

Re: Rothiemurcus / Aviemore

Any of the car parks further into Glenmore on the banks of Loch Muick may suit. £2/24hrs see lots of camper vans and motorhomes there.

Re: Moving On

It was after meeting you two at Scolty that sealed my fate as a Bongonaut/Bongolier/Bongofanatic (delete as appropriate)

I used to see you driving past occasionally and recognised the wheels, is the van still local?

Thanks for showing me yours :oops: and good luck

Re: Bongo bike rack!

Here's another option for you. Aiston cycles, 4 bike towbar mounted rack for £163. Been using mine for 7 years and love it, very solid, easy to adjust and window stays clear.

Drop links, another thread

After noticing a tell tale knocking noise I checked the drop links and sure enough they didn't look well at all so I ordered a set of the Meyle HD ones. Went out today to spray penetrating fluid on the bolts with a plan to do them on Monday once I got my brother in laws 3 tonne jack. What I found wa...

Re: Camping Chairs

These are what we use now. They're not small but they are very, very comfy and because they're slightly padded they seem to help keep you warm on the cooler evenings. Just make sure you set an alarm to get up, I've fallen asleep in them many times :D http://www.gooutdoors.co.uk/hi-gear-kentucky-camp...

Re: sun canopy

We use the gutters with figure of 8s. Don't have the sides so can't help there I'm afraid.

Re: sun canopy

Hello all, I'm thinking about buying a Khyam Sun Canopy. I see they are 2.75m in width though and I'm sure the Bongo gutter rail isn't more than 2.5m? In that case I thought there would be some issues with overhanging. Any advice much appreciated if you happen to own one! Steve :) We've got the Kyh...

Re: Cobb oven

Got one last year and love it. I've used it for stews, paella, pizza and loads of other stuff. My kitchen oven is broken at the moment so used the Cobb to do a roast rib of beef last week. It barely fitted in but was cooked to perfection. Takes a bit of trial and error to get used to it but we think...

Re: How low can you go?

Perfect, thanks for the replies.
I ran the cool box yesterday for 5 1/2 hours and the voltage dropped to 11.3 so I'm happy with that, means I can keep my beer cool for a bit longer 8)
