    Ben, I've been reading your thread and I have to say your work is brilliant! Just by asking around I've heard Magnum panels are hit and miss with some areas, so chin up buddy. It's going to be lovely when finished.

    Cheers. Just found out that the hinge panel i have is designed to fit onto the outside of the a post in the actual shut as a repair piece. that explains the huge gap! Phew! Proper one being ordered tomorrow.

    Ahhhh! Try one ... That's all we live on when we go camping now because we set fire to the rear blinds of the Bongo with the primus so nobody can be trusted to cook anything now.

    We could move the mini as it is in a Luton Transit. We could get everything else in it too.

    One trip, job done! BOOM

    Hows it going Ben? I hope the water has remained at an acceptable level for you.
    I know you shouldn't have to but keep at it and keep those rubbish traps clean.
    Cheers, Steve.
