Evening all, been finishing off kitting out the van but ran into problems with the split charge relay for the pump battery. I had a self switching relay that hasnt been used for a couple of years so when I wired it in, there was no output to the auxiliary battery. No problem I thought I will just use the standard 4 pin relay, but I can't find an ignition live power supply. The fuse box in the engine is all permanent live and high voltage fuses, the glovebox fusebox is hidden behind the dash and only a few are accessible. They are all mini blade fuses so cant test them with a live to earth lamp. So tomorrow I have to go and get a self switching relay from Halfords.

Evening all, you should be able to touch a wire onto the little piece of blade in the plastic of the fuse Richard, this will at least tell you what is an ign live.

Good morning all, what’s everyone up to? First in today

I have checked in online for the flight tonight. Later on, I am driving to Reading where the car goes into storage until the summer. From there, Harrisop48 is giving me a lift to Heathrow, thank you very much Peter. The flight takes off at 8pm

Morning all.
It was a rather blowy night on board and not much sleep was had.
Working at Haven Hopton Village this morning .
Hopefully will get back in time for Sunday dinner at the Acle Bridge later.
Depending on the weather, I may or may not take the boat out for a spin.

Safe flight Phil.

Have a good flight back Phil 👍

Yabba Dabba! The sun has some warmth to it when it pops out from behind the clouds, I've just been in the greenhouse sowing some more seeds and the auto vent roof window has opened half an inch It's the first time that's opened since last year.
