Oh @meandher (a frost) then threr are the lucky ones who were born in Australia and see snow as a novelty (and love it)
Saw a small amount of snow at Mt Kaputar (Narrabri) two weeks ago - very enjoyable - also pleased to move on to slightly warmer climes!
Son in London is over the cold - been there 5 years - wants to come home.......

TV Mounting / Hanger
I wanted to mount our Kogan 24inch TV, but little nervous about drilling holes in cabinetry, so I came up with this.
Had the strip of aluminum in the shed. Screws into the pre existing TV mount screw holes.
Can also hang on wardrobe door to allow viewing in bed.

Bugger.. we did not go with the TV arm as I did not want to leave it at the foot of the double bed.. Now I am thinking maybe I should put it there although I would assume the van has nothing to anchor it to there now. great idea what you have done..
There was some extra panel behind there from the factory, I put some pretty big washers behind it when I put the bolts in, I leave the tv in place when traveling, 14000 km now and still solid. (touch wood). If I had of gone for the bigger fridge it might not have been as easy to access behind it.
thanks @fishinglizard on the Starcraft it was into the wall .. Seeing our table already pulled out of the wall just driving home, I am not sure I want to have the TV hanging there. I have been putting it up on top of overhead cupboards although with the condensation we getting up there not wanting to leave it there over night. I am looking at one of those removable mounts thinking I put it two places inside and one outside.
Yes mine is for sale and at a good price for members.........

Put some LED lighting in the front boot. Used a 5050 smd strip. Easily tapped into the wire that leads to the door handle light.
Put in a LED strip light in the awning barrel. Ran power from range hood, put a wireless remote dimmer in the line, wire goes down the seam of the awning. Put a dummy wire on the other side so it rolls up evening.
What light strip did you use @BigSkiddy, and where from? More detailed pics of the setup would be great if you don't mind as am thinking of making this a mod for mine soon,
