    Winter Caravanning & that all important Gas!

    Hi folks, 1st time on this year so Happy new year to one and all. Last year,as it is now, we had an invitation to visit Edinburgh from daughter and Son in Law and the grandchildren for Christmas and Hogmanay. Problem was that most of the family were heading north too so we were asked if we could...

    CL's

    Hi Rupert, Thanks for reply. I'll go just about anywhere if the rewards are there! I ask cos there will be some folk who remember a particuar site for its peace & quiet - having said that- they probably won't say cos thats how they want to keep it eh?

    CL's

    Hi all, We are lovers of the smaller quieter CL's.The sort of place that when you arrive after a long journey, you turn the engine off, get out of the car and the quiet is the first thing you notice and all you can hear is nature, a babbling brook, bird song or the breeze in the trees...

    Southern Ireland ...............................................

    Pat - it's the Euro! Going abroad now into the euro zone is very expensive. I recently went back to France after some years away- couldn't believe how dear everything was! After recently having a fortnight in Devon with glorious weather - Britain, with the right weather takes some beating!

    Keeping little critters out over winter

    Hi Cobbers, As a professional pest controller I would suggest firstly trying steel wool (the course pan scourers used in indian and chinese kitchens if you know the type)to prevent entry. Mice cannot gnaw through steel. Failing that, if you go to Wilkinsons or similar and purchase some Snap E's...

    Awning carpet

    Hi Jason, Tried the breathable carpet once- Don't stand on it with bare feet! The freezing cold water in the ground comes through it and it's horrible! I know some sites ask for breathable ground sheets and we have to honour the owners wishes. But, where you are not asked to use one, have you...

    Where shall we start?

    David, Couldn't agree more! Have never worked out the attraction of motor homes? Unless of course you can buy such a big one (

    Manufacturers response time

    Tie them down James- Ask what shortly means but I would expect a reply within the day or if they can't find out that quickly, they should ring you and keep you informed of progress- it's called MANNERS!!

    Thanks to anyone concerned!.

    Having left our CL in Beer, Devon, on Sat 19th Sept after a wonderful fortnight, and travelled up to the M5 to head North to the Market Harborough area, we decided to pull in at Sedgemoor Services to take a well earned break. I had noticed people pointing and nodding at us and wasn't aware until...

    which cover ?

    Hi, I bought a Pro-tec cover 3 years ago for my new (as it was then) Avondale Argente 650/6. It was fine but holes appeared in the cover on the top of the van after a year or two. Now this may have been because of birds etc. I now own a Elddis Crusader Cyclone and have bought a cover from...

    Calor Light or Pocket Light?

    Hi all, I'm sure there are other blogs on this subject within the site but I thought I would make a fresh start, so I apologise in advance for perhaps going over old ground. Right, now I have the civilities out of the way my topic is regarding Calor Light. Now, having come to the end of one of...

    Check the details before you book!

    Jimbob, I couldn't have put it better myself. As I have said on numerous occasions, the type of person you meet on Club Sites and CL's are 1st class. There is always a helping hand if you need it as indeed I hope I have given help when someone else needed it and after 20 years of such great...
