    That's unbelievably cheap by uk standards mack. I'd love to live out there if I had the chance .

    How much does land cost out there mack ?. I know that's a bit of a how long is a piece of string question.

    If I ever bother to get myself a bigger caravan. I'd love one of those .

    Now look what you've gone and done . He's probably in Asda now , having a dirty protest at the deli counter

    I can honestly say , it's been the very best car I've ever had . It just ticks all the boxes for me . I keep waiting for it to give up the ghost ( its done 180,000 ish), but it just keeps going. I'm really hoping that I can replace it with another one when it's gone.

    Had it been a bit bigger , I probably would have to be honest . I love log burners , but you can't just turn them off to cool down . I'd end up sitting on it in the dark

    As you can see , it's luxury beyond my wildest dreams . We even have guest accommodation now.

    That looks spot on mate .

    My caravan was built before they had cars to tow them with , I think it's been sitting in the woodland for about 30 years. The regulator is the one that was with the caravan when I bought the woodland. I put a four ring gas hob in about five years ago , and that's been faultless , but , now that I know it could be an issue , I'll put a new regulator on there. The bottle is already chained up , I'd never thought about it falling over to be honest, it was purely for security, but now that I know that falling could be an issue, I'll make the chain a bit tighter . I probably should

    From what information I can find , the bottles are different pressure, but the regulators do the job of letting out the correct pressure , and propane and butane operate at about the same pressure .

    That's something that I didn't realise , so if I do use a gas heater , I'll be putting in an extra vent

    This is sort of where I've arrived at . I've done as much research as my brain could cope with . I've gone around and around in circles , and come right back to what I already knew in the first place. I was just a bit worried about it , because I get pretty paranoid about gas .

    Get it bought mate. It feels great to own a bit of woodland .

    I did think about the caravan club , but then I realised that it was really just a swinging /wife swapping club , and you wouldn't swap my wife for a f***ing old pram .

    Where will I find a gypsy at this time of day .
  16. mel b
    Yep , definitely winning .

    That's just a beautiful place to be mack .

    I've asked two caravan gas guys , one said yes it's fine , and one said no its not , but neither one could really give me an answer why. I think I've just stumbled across the right answer , by asking Google a slightly different question . It seems that decent heaters(ones with oxygen depletion cut out)are all made to a standard for using lpg , and either propane or butane will be fine . Just keep propane bottles outside , don't sleep with the heater on , and use two reliable carbon monoxide alarms. I might still be fitting a diesel night heater instead , it's just the solar panels an

    Tidy place for a mooch. Those moles have been busy.

    . This was my thoughts on it to be honest . The boiling point of propane is lower , so I could run a heater off my large propane bottle that sits outside , and I wouldn't have the bother of different bottles, and it getting too cold to use the heater . I just don't want to get it wrong , and gas us , or , blow us up .

    Cheers Arry. From what I can see , it should be fine ( and burn a little bit hotter) , but it would be inside a caravan, so I need to be sure before I do it. Some people say that the jets in the heater need to be changed , and other folks say that they should be fine. Other folks say that the pressure would be too high from propane , but others say that that's what the regulator takes care of. I've found a propane/butane heater , but it comes with a butane regulator, and I can't get an answer from the manufacturer, to tell me that it's safe to change the regulator .
  22. mel b
    Hiya guys . Does anyone have any real life experience of running a butane heater , on propane gas. I've been trawling the Web for weeks , and can't get a definite answer. Just lots and lots of opinions .
  23. mel b
    That's an interesting watch

    You'd think it was her nan .

    I was gonna say she doesn't really look like the boxing type when I first saw the pic.
