Hi Dudley 43. Sorry not much help have just had a quick look inside our T.T. some are straight and some are bent over

I would advise you get in touch with Raclet

http://www.ukcampsite.co.uk/directory2/details.asp?revid=66&typeid

They will be able to help you and you could ask them for the instructions and plan for your model of T T

Let me know how it goes ........... can't wait for the warm weather

Hi Cat thanks for looking for me.My husband says it will be ok and he should be able to suss it out.Its the sought of thing he always says but isn't always right.We are working on our camper at the moment and he keeps doing things without asking me what I think first,causing auguments it is.Never mind he does his best ,I just wish he would communicate with me more.After almost 30 years of marriage I think we have got communication breakdown

.He put these really great rods in the overhead cupboards to stop anything falling out while driving,trouble is being 5ft tall I now have to try and get my arm over the rods to reach the back ,or between the rods jamming my arm in and making them sore.I showed him it wasn't very good for me but he just thought I was trying to put down his work as he does say I critisise him a lot.

We will get there in the end I suppose,just a few arguments along the way

Hi Cat,just a note to say we used it over Easter and everything went ok.

It's not a bad tent at all.Had a bit of a problem with the wardrobe type affair,think thats what it was?The bit that sticks out from the main awning.We had a lot of rainfall and I didn't notice this ,it's now stretched the plastic roof area as it filled up with water.I suppose plastic dosn't go back in shape like canvas does.I will have to make sure we put support poles in that bit now as any rainfall will just sit there.

We also had a problem with some tree sap,was under a large pine tree,a drop of tree sap landed on the roof and its took the colour out of the canvas.It was grey and went completely white.Never had time to clean this off after we put it away.It was just a small drop ,will this rot through do you think?

Apart from these minor mishaps had a great time and I was pleased with the Raclet.

Hello. So pleased to hear you managed to get away in your Raclet

We try not to pitch directly under a tree but when we have haven't had too bad a problem. Not sure if tree sap can damage the fabric  

Next time it will be easier  Have fun camping 17

We stored our folding camper in the garage and used an ultrasonic rodent repeller.  The camper was intact but it may have survived intact without the repeller.
