14th May 2009 - The search for a new shower tap begins

A long wet journey north further frustrated by the sudden lack of motorhome dealers. After three attempts to get the shower bits we needed, we ended up by blocking up the pipe holes – a reminder of the very old mice joke! A little Spanish trick of clamping the pipes tightly bent back on themselves stops the increasing flow of water. Well we can’t blame Laudun for the weather. It just poured with rain so hard our only real memory of this pretty little village was the mad dash round for super glue to add permanence to the earlier major repairs to the tap. Very good tip - don’t travel without some! It didn’t mend the shower tap but helped stem the flow (for future information - prevention of frost damage can be found on Club Motorhome website!!!!!!!)
