I'm with Alex on this one. There are many CC wardens ive encountered that would benefit from 'people skills' training.

Thanks Lutz, the side lights and indicators etc are all working fine. So it could be a bad earth?

Upon checking the lights before moving off our pitch yesterday, my Wife noticed that one of the brake lights was not working on the back of our caravan. I checked the brake lights on the car and all was well so I reached for my toolbox and spare bulbs and proceeded to change what I thought must...

I agree. What is wrong with the good old fashioned winder handle? absolutely nothing!. We have just returned from our easter break and both myself and the mrs observed many caravanners using a power drill to wind down the steadies. I personally think this is either lazy, or a bigheaded "look at...

Hi thanks for all the replies. Well after much searching, I finally found a local tyre fitter who can supply the size with an increased load index rating of 92 T.

Hi Lutz, Thanks for your sterling advice. I contacted Bailey on wednesday and they advised me that the tyres would be available from my local Bailey dealer and I would have to purchase them via them as they do not supply direct to the public. however, when I contacted the two nearest dealers...

Hi All! I am Andrew, Wife Sharon, kids Josh 13, Chloe 4. We live near Bridgend South Wales and our Caravan is a 2005 Bailey Ranger 470/4 (2005) towed by our ever reliable Citroen Picasso 2.0 Hdi. Have booked many weekends away this year starting with Tredegar Park Newport this easter. Hope...

Absolutely Brilliant! You could imagine T.C. telling them Andrew

Hi Mark, We have have a Bailey Ranger 470/4 (2005 model) and we love it! We looked at the Discovery and Ranger models due to the weight limitations of our car. As Zafiral mentioned, there is very little difference in price and weight of both models but extras in the Ranger made the choice a...

Hi CO, Thanks for your reply. The worrying thing is the fact that the caravan dealer in question is indeed Discover Lesuire which has seen it's share price fall from

I am after a bit of advice..... My caravan is due to go in for a replacement front panel next week and I am a little concerned. Due to the current financial situation and the fact that many businesses are going to the wall especially in the lesuire sector, what would be the legal position if...
