Hey Cocka, nice rig you got there....
You're right about it not being really practical to get inside for lunch stops, although it can be done without too much fuss, takes only a couple of minutes to flip the lid & stick the 2 "stretchers" above the kitchen area. Because you won't be using the bed, there is no need to put down the ground supports etc, nor the stretchers over the bed end.
However, our usual practice is to organise lunch at the start of the day (sandwiches etc) and carry these in an old esky in the back of the trailer. You'd only need to get inside if you wanted to use the stove....why would you at lunch time? We have a thermos for hot drinks, and cold stuff is kept in the engel fridge in the truck, although you can still access the trailer's fridge as
well without lifting the lid. I also have a "Hot2Go" kettle, but it's painfully slow and I'm usually either out of gas, or the bloody batteries for the pizzo (spell???) ignition are flat. Not one of our better buys (Annette bought it for me as a gift).
