We picked up our 2nd hand Bailey Pegasus a week or so ago, and are still finding all of the changes the previous owners made.

One thing we have noticed is that they added a lot of those stick on white hooks - everywhere. The bathroom, the bedroom, by the doors . . . but - we cannot work out what this one is for.

There is a white hook stuck to the roof, above the hob and next to a skylight. What would you hang from there?

We've thought - fly paper, or teatowels, but they would be right in your face when cooking . . . what do you think?

A noose?
A bucket to catch the drips from the skylight?

To dry the damp dishcloth/wiping up cloth ... near open skylight to increase rapidity of drying, and any malodorous properties.

It's for one end of the hammock that runs the length of the van. You should be able to find one at the other end.If not, stick one up. Suggest using for mother-in-law when she comes with you?

check where the tv ariel points are. we used to have something like that in our first van to hold the long ariel lead off the floor when we were passing it through a window to the awning.

Failing that dry the kids out on it!!

I think your previous owners also owned our van at some stage. We gave so many self adhesive hooks in some very odd places. I've been able to remove some but others wont budge and I don't want to ruin the walls

Haven't got a roof one though!

Holding up fairy lights?
For the ones near the skylight - perhaps holding up some sort of fly screen?

Sometimes a little rain must fall before you reach a rainbow.

The work will wait while you show the child the rainbow, but the rainbow won't wait while you finish the work.

ah...yes...erm...right. When im cooking, and i spot a lady walking past the van, i can spin around, straight into my plastic mac in one move, and be in time to give her an eye-full before shes moved on. Sorry, should have taken it down.

By the way, i am reformed now, so i can let you have the mac very cheap??

I would think they put a solar panel either on the roof or in the heki to charge the battery, the hook was to keep the wire tidy and out of the way.

Or, to hold the water bucket

Well it's definitely not for anything to hang up, but it could be for something to hang down.
