Aha, it puzzles a lot of folk, me included to begin with!!!

It's a back rest, and it sort of slides up widthways to rest on the frame about a foot back from the front of the mattress. Difficult to explain but easy once you have the knack...

I will try and post a pic if I can

Woohoo it worked. Last time I tried a book of the face link it was blocked. This is a public link to my set of pics from when I was doing up Bluebell.

Just seen your facebook post and can see how it goes now, thanks. you have a lot more goodies than I have. I didn`t realise it needed a inner tent as mine hasn`t got one, will have to see if I can get one on ebay. Or a kitchen but I need a bar more than a kitchen lol. I have a Quechua pop up tent that would probably fit over the trailer front. Well Wendy you`ve certainly got my brainbox working and I can`t wait to get started Thanks again

It came with a lot of the the goodies.

The kitchen looks like it is from an old caravan, fitted into a wooden box with flap down front, and the whole thing is screwed onto the draw bar. Add a gas tank at one side and a water bottle on the other, waste underneath and you're good to go.

I do festivals, and generally (as I have limited mobility) I'm pitched quite close to the action, so it's nice to have a quick-pitch kitchen tent over the draw bar so friends can drop in for a brew or shelter from the elements- UK weather being as it is!!!

The inner is an adapted one from a frame tent I think, eBay seems to have a few of similar design, it keeps out the draughts and keeps in the warmth at night.

I had a lot of fun customising Bluebell, and she has had lots of very positive comments from my Festival friends, one of them is looking for a similar rig for his family for this coming season.
