Fixed table and chest of drawers problem
Just had a week away in our new Bailey Pegassus. All very good and v pleased with our super comfy Island bed.
Our problem arose on setting up our TV. Where did I put the aerial lead asks my lord and master. In the top drawer, I reply. Its not there. It was, but somewhere on our 200 mile journey it disappeared over the back of the drawer into the space behind where
the bed slats live.
Bailey have in their wisdom fixed the shelf.....so we try with a bent coat hanger, no luck. Try to remove the drawers, no luck. Try pulling out bed slats, which jump the rails and stick....how to get them back then became a problem too. Eventually the bed
slats were realigned, we tried to get into the space via the under-seat space, no use. Via the bottom locker....husband removed 2 heating ducts, keeping a tie on them so we didnt lose them. The holes were too small for my hand, and the insulation was very
thick.
Eventually ( an hour later) after poking the wire through, we glimpsed the lead and VOILA! We had it. My question is surely we are not alone in losing things in this space. It must be possible to remove the drawers? How? We might have lost something really
important and anyway access is vital if the bed slats become detached. I have asked our dealer but had no reply so far.......anyone else had this problem?

That's not the only inaccessible space in a caravan. I hadf occasion to remove my rear light cluster. Refitting four 'rawlplug' type screws took me an hour and a half with three nuts now rolling around in the void between the cassette loo assembly and the
rear panel. Examining the cassette container assembly appears to suggest that any removal of that would require dismantling the whole toilet compartment. Who designs these things?0 -
My privous van, an Avondale, the chest of drawers were help in place by two bolts and it could be lifted out and it would fit under the slats making a hugh double bed, there doesn't seem to be a similar thing on our current Swift
