Our oil-filled radiator and 4 layers is doing the job nicely.

We had that happen one winter at Braemar, XB. Water had to be hosepiped from a tap inside the utilities building. I don’t know what the solution would have been if there was no toilet/shower block…

My van is purely being used for CX right now.

Even the boy doesn't want to camp right now :-)

Nicely warm overnight with the tuma system ticking over on hook-up :) glad the electricity isn’t on a meter
Keeping fingers crossed the fresh and waste water tank heaters are working properly…

We’ve just pitched at Patterdale. We were going to have an off grid night but decided, as it’s so cold, we’d take advantage of a CL site electricity supply. We were booked on here from tomorrow so rocked up a day early and are the only people here.
Everywhere looks pretty with the frost.

Guess who forgot to empty the water tank in their van before the big freeze!

Any tips? Should we wait until it warms up now. We won’t be using it for a few weeks.

Same here, Scribbler. I went to it at the weekend hoping to be able to empty it, but it was frozen solid. I’m hoping that because the taps were open nothing will have cracked… fingers crossed!
