The importance of a
level van was stressed to us when the salesman was running through a list of
“what to do” and “what not to do”, which as it happens was a complete waste of
his time given that we had forgotten about most of it when it came to setting
up! Apparently, a level van was priority number one before attempting any of
the other arduous task’s in order that electrical equipment functioned as
intended and water flowed freely in the direction it was designed to do. I of
course was assigned to the job of raising and lowering steadies whilst wifey
shouted instruction from inside the van having made herself foreman by virtue
of knowing where the spirit level was kept. I have since learnt (blindingly
obvious) that stage one should be to raise and lower the jockey wheel (not the
blasted steadies) in order to achieve our objective, a fact which had
completely escaped me! To be honest very few other problems presented
themselves other than the appearance of a strange coloured liquid swilling
around the shower tray, which we thankfully later discovered was from our
washing up bowl having taken the wrong direction when vanishing down the plug
hole i.e. instead of going out of the van into our waste container it had taken
a wrong turn and ended up swilling around at the bottom of the shower. Clearly
we hadn’t got it as level as we had believed!!
