Hi all. off to France again this summer. looks like I've wasted another 300 pounds on post BREXIT madness, getting our passported pooch rabies vaccinated AGAIN! twice in less that a year. surly there is a risk to the dog getting over vaccinated??

Fully agree Clive, let's not forget the massive issue here with intensive puppy breading in the UK. We are a family that has always had pedigree spaniels and whippets and as part of our family we want to take the dogs away with us. Our last cocker died last year, on my birthday at the grand old...

Hello All. We regularly visit France for the summer holidays and as well as the gang of children we also bring our dog, Lucy. We are planning next years trip and I have just received this update from Eruotunnel. Quite interesting and anyone who take their beloved pooch to the continent needs...

We purchased the 530/4 last year and its proved so far to be a superb van for our family of four (2 x teenagers). I have had a look at the new models to be honest, I was really disappointed. The interior is not as nice as the 2016 model and one of the features we like when making the decision to...

Stay away for inflatables too!!!

Hi HFE. We too keep our van on a seasonal pitch since 2002. Our site is in a valley in Snowdonia so the wind and weather in general can be horrific. I have tried most awnings over the years but find a traditional porch awning the best for full seasonal use. Currently we use a 2106 Dorema Oslo...

Hello Jaydug. I had a good look at your word press and thoroughly enjoyed your caravaning adventures. Your family has had a fantastic experience filled with memories that will last forever. I can empathize with you, we have been caravaning since both entering the teaching profession in 1994...

Thanks Damien. Thanks seem a better prognosis. i will have a look on the NCC approved website.. Tony

Hi Damian. looking at section five of the bailey warranty blurb>>>> 5. During the first three (3) years of the Warranty Cover, all annual inspections and repairs must be carried out either by Bailey itself or an approved Bailey Service Centre or Agent. I cannot find a Bailey approved...

My apologies i have just read the answer in st spoons post 'TOPIC: servicing question'. Oh well back to the main dealers it is! Dam I've got to get a tow bar fitted now too AT A COST OF £450. for a warranty specific version on the insignia. thanks Tony

Hello all. Surely this must be good news for resale values on pre loved vans...for once!! Hope so considering our van is approaching one year old. Tony

Hello all. We have had a fantastic year back with the caravan and she is now safely tucked up in storage (hopefully)! just starting to think about the 1st service. We site her in north wales and we are trying to find out if Bailey will be happy with a approved NCC engineer doing the 1st...

Good evening all. Just a quick update. We took delivery of the insignia today. 1st thing that I did as you can imagine was check the vehicle weight plate. Fantastic the figure is 2120kg, the same as stated on the V5. Combining the new caravan MTPLW of 1377kg I have literally avoided the cat BE...

Thanks for the advice Ray :) In fairness to Mrs Lovo we have been to France several times and she has done an equal share of the towing. Really looking foward to another adventure next year. Regards Tony

Thanks John. Let's hope the V5 and the vehicle plate match!!! Pick the car up Monday evening so I will let you know if I'm celebrating or booking a Cat B&E test!!! Cheers Tony
