In fairness, Brook Lea (if it is the CC site with no loo block) is a very steep site, so anyone with reduced mobility may struggle.
Also the lack of loo block will increase the water usage.

You once talked about losing weight how are you going to getting nicked by the law for no hand signals just a slight dip with the carpet to whatever way your going to go

.HI JEFF how are you?

I think it's a pretty good idea! I wonder if it would work with mine? It's pretty heavy when full, and dragging it back is hard work with a bad back. But mine is only a 26L Fiamma and I find that hard, never mind those big rolling things!
