Gaslow
This is the setup we have inside the gas locker at the rear left of the van.
Because the right side bottle is easier to access, it's the one I use the most. After the fill up on Wednesday they should both be showing full.
That means the gauges should have the black line right around on the thickest green area. I took these pictures today after we got back from Choose Leisure.

Very odd. All I can assume is that it was one of the connections to the left bottle that was leaking gas into the van. It's heavier than air and under the bottles there are vents to allow the gas to drop through and into the open air.
I have used the left bottle in the past for the hob but when filling it's supposed to fill both bottles without any manual intervention.
As we usually have electric hook-up on sites and aires, we generally only use gas for the hob to cook on.
I couldn't smell gas when I oppened the back doors and the gas locker door to take the photos, although putting my nose to the bedding above all this and there is the aroma of the artificial smell they put in the gas... Otherwise LPG/Propane/Butane is odourless.
We'll see what it's like in the morning when we set off for Brooklands Museum and the Caravan Club South East Meeting!
