Hi all, Firstly my apologies if this question is in the wrong section of the forum. I have an issue with the water draining from the sinks and the shower, the sinks take ages to empty and the shower overflows. I thought this was because I was not level yet this weekend i was preparing the van...

Hi Tom & Oliver Thank you very much for the advice, we should be down there about 11pm so will give the waitrose a try. It also adds abit if adventure to just pull over and jump in the van and have a kip!! Thanks Anthony

Hi Jon, Last year was my first trip with a caravan into France, I took Sadies advice and stopped in a 24 hour service station, parked in between two other vans in the lorry section and didnt feel concerned at any point. Kids and I thought it was great fun, and part of the adventure, the wife...

Hi all We are new to caravaning, been away four times in total, one of which was to France. One of the aspects I have really enjoyed is meeting new people and chatting, either when filling up the aquaroll or the neighbours etc etc. This weekend we were chatting to a couple who were very nice...

Thank you very much Eddie, will give it a go and see what happens. Anthony

My friend who came away withn at the weekend has a caravan with a blue stabiliser hitch, similar set up as a Alko, i think its a 'Winterhoff'. When he tows its makes an awful screaching noise, we asked a caravan shop while we were away what they thought and they said the tow ball and inside the...

I am also a newbie, my reversing is hopeless, but its not all down to me, the wife manages to stand in the only place I can't see her, and then when I can see her she only has two movements forwards or backwards. On my first trip i created quite a crowd watching me, it was very very funny, but...
