Although i haven't got a clue what the word is in this instance, i think i know what they're on about,

When i did my training many years ago for the RAF as a driver we were taught the word P-O-W-E-R, this helped us to remember how to carry out vehicle checks before use.... Petrol-Oil-Water-Electrics-Rubber.

When we used to ask the children what that "little word" was, we were referring to "Please" or "Thank you"!

I don't know what the rest of you are on about but I think PeeJay has probably got the right idea.

Exactly Pete, another example S.W.A.L.K which of course we all know. So the article (coming back to my original post) in the magazine gave youa similar word to remind you of what to check on "take off" com'on Chris do you know? If so please inform. Cheers. Jeffus. Cool

Sorry folks, hate to disappoint you but I don't remember any acronym - just a list of things to do:

230v hook up disconnected
steadies up
gas off
levelling blocks removed
step in
doors & windows secure
vents closed
fridge on 12v
boiler cover off

Can anyone do anything witty with that little lot Question

I also did a couple more lists - one with height, width, length and weight in both imperial and metric (using the same website that Gillian recommended). One for kph and mph (only have kph on mine). Just keep them to hand in case.

Read about another reminder for driving here and overseas - a card to say - Keep left, look right and vice versa - just don't muddle them up Exclamation

Chris
