A FEW TIPS
Spring
clip type clothes pegs can be used to keep opened bags closed,
take the place of fiddly closures on sliced bread, substitute
as a clip to keep loose papers together and even peg clothes
on a line.
Glasses travel OK in stubby holders
or in holes cut to size in polystyrene. Ours live in a cut down
carton with several layers of polystyrene with holes for different
sized glasses. (You can cut the holes with an empty tin heated
over a flame but you can get into trouble if you do it in the
kitchen - the smell is shocking and probably toxic!)
Wire coat-hangers can have the
hooks bent around so that they never jump off the rails even
on severely bumpy roads.
Where you have separate outlets
for the shower and sink, a bucket can be adapted to have the
water run into the top and then exit through an outlet screwed
into the side at the bottom connected to the waste hose. This
eliminates the problem of poor outlet flow caused by water backing
up in the waste pipe.
Check the alignment of other people's
TV antennas when you arrive in a caravan park or campsite - chances
are they point in the right direction.
Cook double the amount of casseroles,
curries, stews, etc. that you need, put it into a container in
the fridge and you have an easy to prepare meal at the end of
the next day's travel.
