The day I feel I have to start chaining everything to the 'van is the day I will give up caravanning for good.

I'm with John (2kias) on this one - perspective.

If you write something like "This belongs to caravan (CRIS no.) and is stolen if being sold."

Even if you change your VAN you can carry on using. Only problem would be if you wanted to sell at some time in the future.

Not sure though if you use permanemt marker if they couldn't just use another pen and cover up, would you need an engraving tool?

Permanant marker - have seen this removed using air freshener! I was totally unaware that you could do this until I saw it

Permanent marker?? Not so permanent!!!

Like Michaels idea's for the pump lock, particularly the second option. Only problem is I cannot work out how the pump fits in. Have you got any photos of the finished job that you can post on here? I will be making one in stainless as soon as I have worked it out!

Great ideas and diagrams Michael, have added them to my folder of instructions etc for future advice etc. as well.

thanks papa pip.i have photos.will send to wizzard as not sure how to put on here.

Thanks for the prompt reply, I thought it was designed to accept the plug ("square plastic lump") that fits into the socket in the caravan. I will have one of these made before the weekend, but I think I will carefully weld it up (without melting the pipe) and then anybody will have to cut the pipe and electrics if they want to borrow it.

once made open it up enough to get the pipe in and slide it onto the housing of the pump and then clamp onto the housing with the vice without doing damage to the plastic.
