I only set it up today, but I do hope you will pop over and join.<br /><br />Some people are looking for spares and repair help too so will be a handy place to share those aspects too i hope.<br /><br />Hope you manage to get out in her this year! I certainly will be, when I have got the re-sealing and repairs done!Angry Daughterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09679956990436312982noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1021448352771877670.post-42255173894660870272012-07-02T22:25:55.347+01:002012-07-02T22:25:55.347+01:00LOL Please don't make me go to Tesco..... Haha...LOL Please don't make me go to Tesco..... Hahaha ;-D We were told that those Pump Sprays (like professional gardeners use for weedkiller) are good for doing the roof, spray it on and hose it off apparently - I just can't get to the middle properly even with the wobbly steps! :-)<br />Carrie is an Avondale, but the fabric is very much like yours - and our curtains are identical. The bathroom is PINK!!!!! :o and I've been wondering about papering or painting that. I'll be reading with interest if you do yours. The rest is a bit un-inspiring but I'm going to change the fabric (or at least cover it) before I consider anything more drastic.<br />I loved your Pinterest board by the way, and spend ages following links!<br />Jude.xJudehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08736270370884673589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1021448352771877670.post-69428161499133639252012-07-02T14:20:57.035+01:002012-07-02T14:20:57.035+01:00Hope you're sitting down Jude.....to wash it w...Hope you're sitting down Jude.....to wash it we used Tesco Naturally powered washing up liquid!!!!! SO to those who say environmentally friendly goods are inferior....take a look at the shine on my van!!! Haha!<br /><br />Is your Carrie a Vanroyce? We have all the original bright orange melamine dinner service in ours!! WIll pop that on a post soon...it's got to be seen to be believed!<br /><br />Thinking of painting the inside with vinyl or kitchen paint and re-papering the bathroom with the shiny bathroom wallpaper you can find in B&Q and the like.<br /><br />It was a long handled brush and step ladders and it was still very difficult but good enough.<br /><br />xNorahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02429295648611032746noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1021448352771877670.post-25199524088182004182012-07-01T20:41:22.226+01:002012-07-01T20:41:22.226+01:00:-D Our "Carrie - van" is the same make ...:-D Our "Carrie - van" is the same make as Lucy's.... Seems caravan manufacturers must have had a of lot of yukky fabric offered to them throughout the years!!! I too have been inspired by Lucy, and looking at fabric on our local market - do I go 'sophisticated' with a hint of fun or bright and cheerful? It's only the two of us now and I've seen a gorgeous cream fabric that would make lovely curtains and throws. I will use the old roller blinds and just replace the fabric - have done that before and it worked great with a stiffening spray.<br />What I do want to know is what "cleaning stuff" you used on Flossie? She looks lovely (and I still can't reach the roof even with a long handled brush!) <br />Off to look at your Pinterest board now.

We've put off the search until next spring but i am hoping i can get one of my own for 2013. Looking forward to seeing the rest of your makeover!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00214669651632289883noreply@blogger.com
