 Hi, Duncan  Just one little tip that i had to learn the hard way. Don't shake your toilet casette to vigoursly when you empty it, It's possible detatch the float that work's the level indicator on trhe front of your toilet. This involves a messy,smelly job that requires you to have a universal joint surgically implanted between your wrist & elbow to enable you to get your hand inside the casette to re-attach the float? You have been warned!!!!! Now about those awning's folk have been telling you about,easy peasy!! the wife & i get our's up with never a cross word ( mind you it's taken 23 year's to reach this happy state of affair's ).

    Happy camping!   Bikermike

I have a tip be careful not to drop your jocky wheel and the front of the van something i did on my first outing had to get a tractor off the site to lift the van back up so i could hitch it on! hehehe

Not funny at the time but it is now!
