I currrently tow with a Kia Sportage which is great - no complaints. However, I do quite high mileage to my place of work and the miles are mounting up on my car. To help prolong the life of my Sportage, my Mum has offered to have a tow bar fitted to her 53 Sedona which will mean that she can...

I have just come back from a great weekend at Ferry Meadows CC site in Peterborough. I have to say, the wardens were great - I arrived at around 5pm on Friday and on arrival, there was a problem with my booking (not my fault I hasten to add, but a glitch in the CC system). The warden phoned CC...

Thanks everyone for this - I collected my new Sterling Europa a couple of weeks ago and switching off the power unit wasn't mentioned. I really find this forum brilliant for exactly this type of thing. Thanks all

Hi, I bought a Royal Titan and had it fitted to my '94 Elddis Typhoon (I caravan on my own with my 10 yr old daughter and can't 'manhandle' a van, also store on my drive which is quite tight to maneover). I am very happy with it, although it is my first mover, it is so easy to hitch the van to...

Les, That is absolutely fantastic. My family have just had a real laugh which, in the circumstances, is just what we need. My father sadly passed away yesterday morning and we have laughed so much at this as he was an engineer who specialised in sewage systems/septic tanks. He would have...

I was 'unfortunate' enough to have to drive past Donnington Park last summer on the Thursday night of the Download weekend and can confirm that there were definitely touring caravans both en-route and on the site. Also, Glastonbury have a dedicated field for touring caravans/motorhomes provided...

Lunar are launching this very type of model at the Birmingham show next month - front diner makes into a double and second diner at rear has 2 6' singles with cantelever bunks over the top. Comes with separate shower cubicle within mid-ship bathroom. Advertising says MTPLM of under 1500kg. It...

Don't mention the Tax Man - I've just spent the last hour completing my online tax return!!!!!!

I have to agree with Annie - I have no feather duvets or pillows in my house at all as both my daughter and I suffer with asthma and feather quilts/pillows are very good as ruining a good nights sleep! I always have a problem in a hotel as invariably, the bed is bedecked with feathers - always...

I had to call at my local Bailey dealership which was awash with the new Pegasus range. I soon got talking to a lovely couple who were obvious rally enthusiasts (they did try to press-gang me to join, but I resisted -it's just not for me!). However, we were looking around the new range and to...

Hi Steve One thing that I always ask for is for the facilities (water, waste drain and chem toilet disposal point) etc to be pointed out to me. One site I went to gave me a site map with all of these clearly shown - it was a great help. Also, an information desk/room would be really useful -...

My best friend (and daughter's God Mum) is a Policewoman. I'd like to put her side forward in response to the posts about having to wait behind offices in chip shop queues etc. Like anyone else who works shifts (and yes, sometimes, she works 12 hr shifts), they are entitled to both lunch...

We went to Hendra last August and my 10 year old loved it (she is only 10, but due to her height and maturity, is constantly thought to be a teen by people who don't know her actual age). There is loads to do including learning how to ride a landsurfer - a cross between a skateboard and a...

Whilst certain parts of the country have been hit harder than others, I have only praise for the Head of my daughter's school. My daughter has a bad knee (is under hospital investigation and is awaiting an MRI scan). I took my daughter to school on Thursday (as chance would have it, she was at...

Aren't we all on the same side? Whatever car we chose to drive is entirely our choice - and yes, I do have a 4x4 (A Sportage and proud to say I drive a 4x4). I swapped a brand new diesel hatchback for my 4x4 when I bought my caravan earlier this year - I had considered buying a cheap 'towcar'...
