Just came back from France where we hired a friudge from the site.  Only problem was that the adapter I had did not fit the plug on the fridge.

Any ideas for an adaptor

Loved the tent, but pitching/striking became less & less fun. Motorhome = arrive to brewing up in 10 minutes!

The fridge will have a french 2 pin plug on it that wont fit into the 3 pin socket of a UK EHU.

We have hired fridges in the past and always been given an adaptor by the site.

This is what you need if the site doesnt supply one. Maplin also do them for £3.49.
