Weekend away in North West Wales in the Jumbo....

Postby mistericeman » Mon Mar 27, 2017 8:56 pm

Headed off to our favourite Campsite in North Wales

Open early this year AND mainly populated by Motorhomes/campers when we arrived on Friday (Bonus day off and good weather forecast) AND a good excuse to try out my new spotting scope.

I know, it's not wild camping BUT I've been visiting Shell Island near to Barmouth for close on to 50 years and still love it dearly (out of busy times ;-))

I like the windows you have in the rear doors, do they open? Is there a name on them or do you recall where you bought them?

Severe case of fat fingers and my inept posting in the wrong place I'm afraid...

Hopefully someone will be along and shift it to a, more suitable spot.

They were already fitted when I bought it so not a clue I'm afraid...
They don't open BUT the one on the inside bulkhead does...

That looks like exactly what I'm after! assuming they have smaller versions suitable for my rear doors... same question, any name or clues where I might get one?
