    Can I recommend that when connecting the electric cable to your camper you connect the cable to the van first and then to the mains. That means you are not carrying a live cable across wet grass. When disconnecting, just reverse the process. Stay safe.

      I would also add- don't leave the cable coiled like it was, uncoil it and lay it randomly, if coiled and with a load on it it will heat up and possibly melt the insulation. (an electrician). Enjoy Scotland.

    The van looks fantastic. Looks like you have your hook up cable wound up - DANGER. it could catch fire in that configuration. Always un coil it when in use. Always connect the cable to the van first before connecting to the post. Good luck.

    Sink plug is the correct one just push down on the plug that seals the sink lift up to release the water lol 😅

    • @thebuddymoon
      @thebuddymoon  8 місяців тому +6

      Unfortuonatly our sink didn't come with a plug and the one we bought doesn't push down enough to trap the water. So we will have to keep looking until we find one that fits or perhaps get a silicon one 😊

      I carry a rubber disc that I cut from an old inner tube. It's very handy as a sink plug and fits most sizes. Many campsite and public bathrooms have missing plugs.

    Good luck on your travels. A few things., put the power cable in the van first and then into the power supply. More worrying is your gas locker, it needs a drop hole in the the floor, the gas box has to be sealed from the inside of the van. Smoke alarm and carbon monoxide alarm. Please get these bits fixed.

    Pleeeeeaaase! Always connect your hook up to the VAN FIRST, unreel your cable, and then connect that to the Electric Supply. When you disconnect, take the supply end OFF FIRST. One little nick in the insulation, and you standing on wet grass with wet hands - you, my friend will be TOAST!! If it is raining, it is essential to wear rubber gloves, just in case the connection end is damaged.

    We just left there on a short bank holiday weekend at ‘The Paddocks’….spacious pitches but website stated it was fully serviced pitches but when we arrived there was no grey waste drain at pitch, luckily we brought our grey waste carrier and used the main ground drain beside the toilet block. Lastly the toilets and showers were clean and great, only criticism was the showers not being private cubicles, it was basically 3 showers in a row with frosted glass. So once you had a shower you basically had to dry yourself in the shower and wrap a towel around you and dress the old fashioned way outside with others. Not an issue for myself,but some people like privacy and that just wasn’t it, would have been nice for 3 cubicles made for both men and ladies. 😊

    Welcome to Scotland and to your new van for touring.
    Agree with the connection of the EHZ electricity, van first, mains next. Reverse to disconnect.
    Take that stupid water hose back and ask for a refund. You should only use a blue food grade hose, which you can buy online or any caravan / MH Chandler. Some sites may also stock / sell them.
    You don’t use a garden hose as the insides can delaminate and contaminate your water supply.
    Look forward to following your travels. If you are passing through Perth, give us a shout, drop past for a coffee.
    We have just downsized from a larger 7.5m Coachbuilt to a 6m panel van conversion, so some compromises and changes ahead.
    Best Wishes

    Safety tip for you. Don’t leave the power cable in a coil. They can overheat and catch fire.

    It would be good idea to put a high capacity water tank on Van Roof side, u will save energy on pumping water and it will be more safe and hassle free to clean.

    Welcome to Scotland ,enjoyed your video ,have you tried to push your sink drain right down as it should work as a plug and a strainer
    We're motorhomers and always p,ug into your van first then plug into mains next and always unwind your cable to reduce the risk of it going on fire
    Hope you enjoy our land we have subscribed

    That place looks freezing! Stay warm! Anyways, maybe you can place a vinyl sticker on the engine hood of your van with the buddymoon logo 😊

    LOVE your first sight of snow! I didn’t even know Ingilston had a campsite so will need to visit there in our touring caravan Peggy (towed by a car). Looking forward to your next vlog. Have subscribed and hit the bell! the yellow triangles under van wheels (levellers) and a spirit level are well worth investing in so you don’t have to sleep on the wonk. 😅 PS Still think you should call the van “Buddie” after the Paisley Buddies 🥰🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

    Your Airbnb host was right. The drive to Glencoe is one of _the_ best in Scotland. And on a crisp winter day too. Fantastic!
    Although, if you think those roads were narrow, wait until you get further north! 🫣😬🤣

    • @thebuddymoon
      @thebuddymoon  8 місяців тому +1

      Think we got sooooo lucky with the weather but definitely not complaining about that😂😂 unfortunately we were not able to go further north as we needed to sort things out but it's definitely on our list to do😁
