    Punting the amount of fingers I’d say they must be pints at least
  3. If you’re planning on going via Keedby then no.
  4. You have to book during the winter season
  5. Thanks for that. I think I’m beginning to see the light at the end of the tunnel now.
  6. If I understand you correctly then a shunt in the cable between the junction box and the first leisure battery (as in the first drawing) would work ?
  7. I’ve finally worked out how to draw so, The picture below shows what’s actually there if that’s any clearer, it just strikes me (probably wrongly) that if the shunt were placed between the junction box and the leisure battery then wouldn’t the starter be caught up in the readings?
  8. As I say, the picture is somewhat of a simplified version of reality. But I would have thought the starter battery earth should return directly to the starter battery and have no connection to the other batteries
  9. I’m planning on adding a shunt into my leisure bank wiring but looking at it the other day it seems to be set up as in the “picture” below. The starter battery (charged from its own alternator has a negative that’s connected to the leisure bank. Will this setup work ? Or should the negative return to the starter battery with no connection to the leisure bank? Please ignore the shunt, I just used the picture as it’s easier than trying to explain or draw my own picture
  10. I’ve got one of those thermostats and couldn’t work out how to control it, in the end I turned up a hub unit on fleabay for about £10 and it made it loads easier.
  11. At 55” the telly would have to mount on one side of the cabin or you wouldn’t be able to get past it which means you’ll be sat, at the most, 4 feet away from the screen! I don’t think I’d be able to focus on it that close up, it’d be like being on the front row of the picture house.

    Plate dimension

    If they are the same as the A series ones, and from the picture they are, I found them on the minispares website at £1.24 each. BTW minispares are at the higher quality/price end of the market. You should also fit the seals on the bolts. Part numbers 12A1175 for the large one, 12A1176 for the small.
  13. We finally bit the bullet the day before that announcement and with the help of a couple of volunteers managed to climb the Bosley flight to join you in the clouds up here. It only took four hours but we’ve got some new territory to explore for a couple of months now
  14. Ahh, but there’s the problem you see. Our car is on the boat so it’s the wrong side of the gate to start with!!
