The stories about the camper van continue

It is official. We have a fridge that has a life of it's own. we took it into Avis in Tours - well we took the whole vehicle which had the fridge in - more efficient! We gave them a list of things to look at. They couldn't fix the broken wing mirror (remember the 1st 20 mins of our camper trip) -they even phoned round the suppliers and all of them had sold out. So we continue to be a one wing mirror vehicle. according to Avis everything else was fine.

Back to the fridge, it is meant to work on either battery, mains or gas. All automatic. The only automatic thing about it is that it automatically starts flashing error and switches off. Luckily no food has been damaged, although I have struggled to get the perfectly cold beer. Anyhow, we may have fixed it now, but not sure how. I'm just a naturally gifted handyman - yeah right.

More worryingly we woke this morning (in Les Jardins Du Manor D'Eyrignac carpark) to find that the battery Light for the vehicle battery was dead. I spotted it because the iPad was not charging. Luckily we think it is a minor electrical fault - the car started on first turn, phew. But we can't charge the apple at the moment. Could deal with no vehicle, but no iPad??!?

I will be blogging About less mundane matters later, maybe.
