Thanks for the noseweight guage rec - I'd had a quick look at them but have an elderly pair of bathroom scales that I thought would do the job short term ...?

Does your van have three waste pipes?  Mr WR has been telling me that ours does this morning, but I thought it only had two ...!

CWD ...You forgot the ride on lawnmower to tidy up your pitch OH and Two Landscape Gardeners to Look after the Flora...LOL

I didn't forget. I recognise that many of you non-gardeners would not regard these as essential. I always take the lawnmower and do all of my own landscape gardening on site, taking my spade, fork ,hoe, rake, bedding plants, greenhouse etc.......I didn't mention OH as I anticipate that everyone knows she is essential...How else would  I get my beer poured and carried to my chair?

I wouldn't go quite that far, but I do like a nice potted plant.... or two

Murano-We're doomed!!!!

Oh and don't forget that most useful of things for the van-a roll of duct tape!!!!

Hey David, (shock horror)....all of the other pictures of your awning always show the drinks cabinet. Has it been stolen?

ps. The wife has started taking a vase for our awning table and puts flowers in it for our stay as well

Ooo No - just moved to the other side? 

I buy a potted plant when we get there.  Saves carriage.... and when we go I often give it away to someone who is still there, or even the warden - just a little gesture.  The only thing I carry are a couple of those brown trays to catch the water when you water the plants.  I don't give those away, but they stay in the van as part of my 'essential equipment'. 

I'm just loving this thread!! 

I don't have a flagpole.

But I really want a 5m one with a Staffordshire knot flag!

If David asks nicely I'll let him have a turn with it.

Probably.

I reckon Alcatraz needs a flagpole. It would make a change from the Sainsburys bags flapping on the barbed wire!

How much do you think they'd add on the annual fee?
