When and what do you use the shower plugs for? I can’t think how I would use them.

When I lay up the van for winter I always give the waste tank a good rinsing out before pouring a little disinfectant down every drain hole including the 3 in the shower.
I then put a plug in them all. As there are no U-traps in the pipes, this stops any stray smells or creepie crawlies getting in the van.

Aha, that makes sense. Thank you.

On the subject of odd things pinched off the forecourt : When we got the van, one of the first things my other half did was to practice changing the wheel having never had a Peugeot van before, only Ford.

Cutting a long story short, the five sided adaptor tool for winding the spare wheel down was missing from the kit. What a task that was getting a replacement - Robins & Day parts desk was really helpful but it took a lot of work and we got there in the end, it was only about £12.

Wasn't worth going back to the AS dealer near Northampton (250 mile round trip) when I could just cycle two miles to Trafford Park.

Popped over to dealers today to pick up missing plug and stopper for cooker lid. So all plugged up now
