    Today I started to think everything was falling apart, I seem to have bent the tow hitch from probably trying to put too much load on the weight distribution bars, this we will try to get bye with.
    The 12 pin connection has shorted out maybe from getting wet which set up corrosion, I had to go back to Smithton to get a couple of anderson plugs then retired the connector.
    Then I found that the cable that joins the caravan batteries to the battery in the back of the car had been damaged so I had to shorten that cable.
    Then after a really cool/cold night 10/11c the diesel heater didn’t start up correctly it went into error mode, this I thought was going to be real bad as it’s only going to get colder from here but after a bit of googling I found a solution and it now seems to be working (touch wood).
    Yesterday was very showery and blowy today the wind had reduced a bit but it seems as though the showers are back aiming for a top of 19c.
    Eww had a walk around the old part of the town then gave the pups a run on the beach.
