Hi All For the first time, my wife and I are going for a 2 berth caravan, instead of the 5 berths we have always had before. Grandchildren are now going to be given the awning annnexe to sleep in....they are now old enough. So, we are looking for a new or fairly new 2 berth, something really...

Thanks guys...its maybe time for the van to be given a service, with some extra emphasis on the gas smell. Cheers................Bob.

How many days use do you others get when you run off your battery.....with average use. TV in the evening, just one light on. We go away for 4 night spells about 15 times a year, NEVER use a hook up at all. I do cheat as I have another battery wired up such that I get 12 volts but twicwe the...

I notice that from by the side of the fridge, about an hour or two before I finally run out of gas, there is a feint smell of gas in the cupboard next to the fridge. The fridge is still lit and working. When it eventually runs out of gas altogether, I change to a new full bottle....the gas...

Last March I ordered a new Honda CRV Diesel Automatic, I was given a 12 to 16 week delivery, which I was stunned with at the time, but accepted........that delivery has now gone out to 26 weeks..YES, thats 6 months.!!!!! The main dealership has offered to give me my deposit back as they are...

I am about to take the plunge and buy one of these at the weekend, the auto only came out in 2010....I had a demo one this week for a couple of days, thought it was really good. Are there any reports I can read anywhere, or have any of you got any advice. Thanks.........................Bob.

Thanks for all your replies guys...I have booked in at the Stanmore site in Bridgnorth. Although this visit is for a 60th birthday do in Kidderminster....I do have Saturday free for a foray on the SVR, wife permitting. I went to Derby on Thursday to watch Tornado pass thro on its path to the...

Thankyou Parksy. The temptation of the SVR and of course Tornado is extremely high, I was disappointed to find I couldnt stay at the Unicorn Inn in Hampton Loade. I didnt know that Tornado was at the SVR that week......now I am definitely making a visit there. We have a 60th birthday of...

Looking for advice on sites nr kidderminster where we need to be for a long weekend early November(6th and 7th). Anything nice within 10 or 20 minutes drive. Looking for a nice site though, one you guys can highly recommend. Thanks........................Bob

Hi Dave, My enquiries have revealed it closed at the end of sept for the season. Thanks............Bob

Anyone got any experience or views on this vehicle. I didnt even know of its existence until a couple of days ago, when one was parked up in my road. Bob

I had the same problem when I bought a new caravan 5 years ago....but I was told then that this is quite normal. It might be normal....but its damned odd.!!!!

Has anyone stayed at the Unicorn Inn caravan site at Hampton Loade on the Severn Valley Railway. Does it get booked up well in advance....etc., Thanks...........Bob

My wife and I go to all British Superbikes where hook ups are a non event. Its either a generator or battery power. The dreaded genny gets on my nerves especially if its someone elses at about 11.30 at night. So, I got another leisure battery and connected it in paralell with the main leisure...
