Well, practicle caravan dropped through the door this morning, my lovelly wife is at work all day, the pub has lit the fire - yes I know its August, and they are serving speckled hen.....What a lovelly, rainy, wet, cold day....do I care?

Hi Mark, I will now put on my tin hat and wait for things to be thrown at me in disgust, BUT I tow with a ford ranger. It is 4x4 and has some of the extras, leather seats, air con and electric windows, and is fine for me. It is also cheaper than many other 4x4's either new or second hand. I use...

Peter, always good to hear about good sites, makes more cheerful reading than hearing about the dross, and also makes you go and look them up and mark them as possibles for the future. Glad you had a good birthday, where you still celebrating at 01.25 hrs when you wrote the post, or was the...

Got the definitive answer from caravan club, states that"rule 2(b) caravans bearing advertising matter other than normal manufacturers transfers or plates are not allowed on site. This rule does not apply to the towing vehicle".....Which is good, because I cant afford another car! Not going to...

Hi Tony. I am not sure if it still is so, but sometime ago I worked on a renal unit as an RGN. I remember that there are camp sites that are set up for taking people with both types of dialysis. It would be worth speaking to the renal unit, or the Nurse Practitioner for details. I am unaware of...

Hi there, The quick answer is, yes you can take it there. You can get insurance, but it will be expensive. Also the caravan will have to have test every 2 years as for conformity. however it will fail this test because the door is on the "wrong" side. I lived in Brittany for 5 years, and sonme...

Well, i suppose this is typical of this government. Last I heard not long after the election was a pay as you go scheme, with GPS in every vehicle. No road tax and reduced fuel tax. You just pay for the mileage. I suppose if you drive at least 2 jags, or are payed by us to do it, you can say...

Thanks for the replys, will write to caravan club, and publish the reply. Dave

Hi there, we take our free view box each time. It boosts the signal, even in a site registered as only fair reception, making the signal excellent. Go for it, once you have it its yours, with no extra charges, unless you have a top up box. This is an extracard, that lets you see other channels -...

Hi Martyn We take our TV like many others. We find it better with the freeview box than without. We tend to devote our time to each other as this is why we bought the caravan, and be away from customers, telephones etc! We dont actually watch anything much before 9 - 10 pm unless it is really...

We have been away in our new caravan 6 times since we bought it in Feb this year. My tow car, love them or hate them, is a Ford Ranger. I bought it new, and is in no way scruffy or dirty. I work as a lock smith, and this is written on the side of the vehicle. On some sites, I have been asked to...
