Us too!

Steve could you put this on your list of enquiries fer tomorrow.... I
think we can all leave gennys at wom then and be super quiet campers.

I can still run an extension lead from the van for a couple of flood
lights as appropriate (up to 25 m anyways).

If we pitch in such a fashion to be able to hook up and fit the zeboos
to form a tent village... may be best to put the zeebos infront of the
caravans away from awnings incase of any fire hazard.

Graham , does your space heater need electric?

There is another camp on in a different field to us at the same time, in
their camping field. We are in the touring caravan field, but there
aren't any there ATM. We should have a couple of hookups available from
there, but just how much extension lead can we manage ? I might be able
to cobble up a suitably heavy duty (low volt drop) cable for us, if I
know its needed.

Chiminea ?
No.

I was intending to fabricate one of those thar' woodburners in a propane
tank jobbies though, and I do have a firepit I fabricated too, though
making that portable is probably a project in its own right.

paraffin or heating fuel whichever.

Good question, depends really on how long its intended to run. Doesn't use
much, I'm guessing really, 5 gal?? Does that sound right?
