I have just purchased a lovely caravan Swift Classic Alourette 1997, it has a few odds and ends I need to get hold of plus a bit of advice needed on water pump light.
1) it has no bunk bed cushions, does anyone know where I can get some from or does anyone have any they no longer use.

2)where can I buy new inner privacy rail runners, the plastic bits that attach to the rail to keep it on the runners to section off the bed room?

3) My pump light is meant to switch off when the taps turn off, but it doesn't, the pump keeps running, so at the moment I have to switch the water on when I need it. I tried altering the pressure switch as instructed but it's still doing the same and now my bathroom taps and shower won't work

Could you not buy foam from somewhere like Dunelm? Or cut up a cheap thick memory foam topper?

Do you mean the little things that are tomb stone shaped? I bought some on the internet. Cant remember from where. Try Olearys or Magmum motorhomes

Not sure where you are but in Stoke there's a company called foam furnishings who are really good and will give advie and cut any foam to size. You may have a similar company or an upholsterer's.

Sometimes a little rain must fall before you reach a rainbow.

The work will wait while you show the child the rainbow, but the rainbow won't wait while you finish the work.

1. We have removed the centre-front chest of drawers from our van because we don't need the storage space. To fill the gap I took the measurements to a local furniture upholstery firm, chosen a fabric that contrasts nicely with the rest of the van and left them to it. You should find that any similar firm can do the same.

2. If you only want to hang something light why not use net curtain wire which is strong and you should be able to fix the retaining hooks into something internal & vertical and avoid screwing or drilling anywhere near the outer skin.
