    Caravan breakdown cover

    Hi John. That's what I intended to do but they said the extended cover only included any other cars registered to a private individual, whereas my lease cars registered to the company. I'm going to get in writing whether or not they'll agree to cover it (I'll say Green Flag will) otherwise I'm...

    Caravan breakdown cover

    Hi. Thanks for the replies. Jonathan, does this mean your car is effectively covered twice - with the AA and Green Flag? As I say, Britannia Rescue (who cover my wife's car) won't cover this car/caravan as it's not registered to me. I was also thinking that breakdown cover for the caravan only...

    Caravan breakdown cover

    I have recently got a lease car from work which I intend to use for towing my caravan. The car is covered for breakdown under the lease scheme but not the caravan. I was previously with Britannia Rescue but they won't cover the car (and hence the caravan) as its not registered to me. Does...

    Holgates

    We go there every Easter. Excellent site. Clean with good pool. Also handy for days out in the Lakes, Morecombe, Lancaster, etc.

    Oh dear, he forgot...

    I have to confess I've done it. I didn't notice until I came to a speed hump and the resulting bang. Fortunately the only damage was a slightly bent jockey wheel tube which has made the wheel a bit stiffer to raise and lower. I won't be doing it again.

    carpet fitting

    I did mine fairly easily with a roll end of carpet. I took the old carpet out, which was just stapled to the floor, turned it upside down onto the back of the new carpet and drew round the edges. I then just cut the carpet out using a straight edge, stanley knife and scissors and stapled it back...

    Public awareness

    I was one of 'those people' and was adamant that I'd never have a caravan. I remembered the condensation streaming off the windows, a big jerry can of cold water to wash in and gas mantles that disintegrated if you breathed on them. I couldn't believe it when I saw a friends caravan a few years...

    Carver water filters

    My filter hadn't had the suggested 30 days use but was full of green slime. I put just the cap back and have had no ill effects.
