    Yes, my hubby did complain a bit at first as he has to jack up the van each time. Now though, he has got into a routine and has become much quicker so fitting it is now second nature. We would not be without the Alko secure now - especially with the huge insurance discount and peace of mind...

    CLs and CSs in northern ireland

    Hi Jennifer If you have a boat you will love Drumaheglis at Ballymoney. It is a lovely site and very quiet, although we have only been once as we would prefer somewhere closer to Portrush itself. I am sure you will have a great week there. Janet

    CLs and CSs in northern ireland

    Hi Emmy - we joined Caravan Club for one year but did not find any benefits as they only have one site at Drumaheglis, Ballymoney. Same thing with C & C Club as I think they only have Delamont and we would not want to stick to the same site all the time. It did not benefit us at all as we found...

    Fiamma Caravanstore zip

    Used this for the first time over the Easter period and it is brilliant! We had great weather all week but has anyone used the Fiamma with sides on during very wet weather? Does it cope with quite heavy rain or is it not suitable? Any comments appreciated. Thanks Janet
