Hi fellow travelers, my nav and I have just got back from a brilliant 21 days, through Germany and France. Ending up with the rain on 25th staying with us to Hastings and home. Well home but not in it. As the bricks are still being dried out from a storm damaged roof in January so will continue our stay in the home on wheels for a while yet.
The reason for this message is that we became more and more aware that I'm afraid to say that many of the water points, we visited in France, were being compromised by native motor homers, by the placing of the water tap ' INTO ' the toilet tank necks. So although it is a practice of ours always to flush the tap, then wipe it then flush again before connecting there may be some of you like us when we first started out, who would think that any one would be so stupid as to cross contaminate, but sadly there are.
So...FLUSH....WIPE....FLUSH... DRINK. Otherwise you may not finish that well earnt trip.
Safe journeys
