Disaster, I pulled up at a camp site at "Pumphreys Bridge" Opened the 5'er and found a 2L cask of Merlot had fallen and broke and flooded the carpet. Moved on to Wichepin CP to get away from smoke as the local fire service was burning off. So my job tomorrow is to clean the van.

Re: PeterH tour
I can just see the camp ranger looking in the door seeing Peter rolling around on the floor with a very distinct smell of alcohol wafting in the breeze!!!
"""But honestly officer .... I was hoovering the floor!"""
I reckon new carpet might be the only fix?

Re: PeterH tour
Hang it out to dry, one of the local residents would consider that to be a sign of pure opulence, to be able to wash your carpet from a Dapto/Moe (depending on state you can identify with) handbag and decide it would look better on their floor, then Ken Tames might buy you a new oneBruceS wrote:I can just see the camp ranger looking in the door seeing Peter rolling around on the floor with a very distinct smell of alcohol wafting in the breeze!!!

The carpet will be fine. Shame about the wine.

Re: PeterH tour
To save this tragic incident from happening again, replace carpet with lino, (easier to lick up from)

Re: PeterH tour
Peter,
After a similar disaster [KTA wouldn't come at replacing our Chateau Cardboard.
] we ripped out the aft carpet & replaced it with rubber-backed carpet runner from Bunnings.
Just in case...
