LPG oooo :)

i know you don't partake it that putting out of gas bottles,,fair enough around your cadacs but caravans no  

I think its just another health and safety issue gone mad again :(

maybe theres a market to design attractive jackets to slip over your bottles to make em look pretty :)


Complete with C.C. logo, of course!

well its far more acceptable with a camplet don't you think..but travellers as you know stay in tintents..and therefore having the bottle outside the caravan creates that traveller look which is not nice for others to see  i'd be far more happier if they were inside,,and ooo those horrible tatty looking ones..mine is always nice and blue..i make sure of that when we exchange it :)
Hi,do you have an isue with us travellers.  I suppose we could put the bottle under soem camo but then the police ill think it is a bomb and blow it up and in the prcoess evcuate the campsite and several towns in the vicinity.

What about painting them green, with flower designs like they do on the canal boats?  Still, I suppose some clot would take a short cut to the toilet block, and fall over what he thought was a garden border!  Be a laugh, though!

I had to put by bottle utside the locker on my last van, unless I wanted to use a baby 4.5Kg thing, it wouldnt fit anything else.

I did hae a cover made of canvas for it tho, next to the awning you could barely see it. I used a 13Kg propane, now the bottles fit in the locker, just a standard sized.

If you can't see the light at the end of the tunnel, just keep going till you go round the bend.

Considering the weight of these large cylinders, in the case of a severe collision, would any securing hold?  When you start to do things that are outside the norm, you need to very carefully take stock of all the implications that you actions may produce.
