[QUOTE="theblokefromstoke, post: 145796, member: 24497"] Hiya, As the title says, i am upset today but not with the diabetes - just this. we have a caravan - its beautiful and we store it beside our garage in the garden. It has a lovely big clear sun roof covering all the lounge area. We are booked in for 2 weeks in cornwall from next week. I went in yesterday when the sun was out and opened a few windows to air it a little and thought i would enjoy today cleaning and polishing it ready for our holiday. God knows i am lokking forward to it after the events of this year. All was well. Went out this morning and opened the blind on the sun roof only to see it covered in black stuff and something strange. On further looking it is one of those chinese lanterns that you light and it floats into the sky. The thing has come down obviously still hot and burning, sat burning on my roof for a while and ruined the sun roof. It as all burned, twisted out of shape and looks awful. Of course, i am insured but with only a week to go, this just isn't going to get repaired. my wife has been sobbing all day as the van cost us best part of 20 thousand and we really are looking forward to the holiday. I face the dilemna whether to go away gingerley with our burned roof van and hope it doesnt break off or leak buckets. Or cancel the hols and stay at home. The kids are now grown up but still live with us and happily don't come away with us - its usually the two of us plus coco our jack russell. I am ringing the insurers in the morning to see if they can help. Gutted carl [/QUOTE]
