The mobile caravan repairer was late arriving, but he did manage to feed a wire about 150 mm up the two drains. The AC ran for about 7 hours before a slow drip started again. I should have asked him to give me a short length of the wire he used as it was strong enough to be pushed up into the drain holes, but could be easily bent into a curve shape.
Safety wasn’t a consideration! After watching this ladder move precariously, I asked if he would like me to tie it to the van, but he said it was OK. If it was to fall to the right, there would have been nothing on the roof for him to grab and hold securely, as I had taken down my BOGOUT rope ladder.
I took Bluey with me for the drive to the airport to pick up Anita. He was pleased to see her, but Tilly was very demonstrative, putting her front paws up on Anita’s shoulders.
As Tilly had slept most of yesterday under the van, I was concerned she would be active in the cool of the evening after our concert. When we got back from last night’s concert, I took both critters for a quick walk around our section of the caravan park, but that wasn’t enough to stop her from being crazy in the van for half a hour bouncing off the walls! Tonight, I played with her, chasing her lead in the van.
While it was cool this morning, the Adventurous Tilly emerged, climbing onto the van and into the cargo bay, and running off the minute her lead was untied.
She doesn’t like air conditioning, so preferred to stay outside. This meant we had to go out to check on her, frequently opening the door and letting in humid air.
We turned off the AC when the dripping started, and opened windows and doors as it was not excessively hot outside. After dinner we left Bluey and Tilly in the van while we saw a show in town, hoping he wouldn’t bark at people or dogs walking past.
