What did you do to your van today?

Speaking as someone who suffered a failed earth strap some years ago, and fettled it enough to get home, I can't disagree with your advice, Trev. 👍

My current van's strap is only 5 years old and absolutely fine. I'll continue to wriggle underneath to have a general shuftie at everything, but given how little space they take up I'll shortly buy one and store it until I think it's time to change it.
Put an extra one from the battery neg to frame or g box bolt, 2 better than one as they fuzz up, paint over or grease up.
 
Looked in to see battery charge levels from solar & dry any moisture on the windsheild inside, also placed a we dry cloth/towel at bottom left to right along with 4 dry cristal bags to absorb the damp, seems to work well, i rotate bags every week or so and dry the old ones out in the m wave.
 
Applied new silicone sealant to the whole shower tray. Parked up on our friend's drive in France. Cycled to the nearest hardware store with a note in French to buy it and forgot I didn't have a smoothing tool. Made one out of an old plastic takeaway box, perfect.
