Go for it and have fun. I've often fancied putting under-van blue neon lighting on ours but never got round to it. I do have a chrome Ferrrari badge and a small 'designed by pinnifarina' badge on the back of it at the moment, which amuses me and probably me alone. :)

Always welcomes and feedback from other outfits - had a few viewer updates (even photos) and recommendations this year so comments are always welcome.

I've lobbed fruit into hedgerows but that's it, never any paper, plastic or other food. Just when there a stinky banana skin or something.

You still have the Poll Tax in Yorkshire??

Naah, this country is built on a dedication to moaning about the rain and weather in general, then going and doing our own thing anyway. :) We decided that as this weekend is looking wet, we may as well be sitting inside reading and relaxing looking at it through the caravan window than the...

We lived there for six years and I swear it rained every day. I'd give up all hopes on the BBQ... :)

Sound advice :) Get yourself into the Bryn Tyrch near Capel Curig - you can sit there and drink beer while looking at the mountains - I always found mountains looked their best when viewed over the top of a pint glass. Or the Ty Gwyn in Betws-y-Coed do a mean lamb shank.

I like to think I do my bit for climate change - taken four foreign holidays this year so that's eight flights, and I went to Vancouver for 24 hours earlier in the year to do a noise assessment. And I drive a 4x4. I bought a house on a hill just outside Tewkesbury and if it hasn't turned into a...

Ah well, can't get too excited about that. If that wasn't there there'd only be another tax under another name.

Chappy in our village has a barn full of old airstreams that he does up as catering vans, hospitality units used on TV filming locations, display units for shows, etc. Come in looking terrible but go out looking fantastic. I'm thinking of asking him to turn one into a mobile hearing testing unit...

Somehow got a duplicate reply. Probably down to global warming.

How are you paying £50 a month for it? Is it part of the Council Tax now - police, refuse collection and global warming??

Ditto - just got £7500 off the list price on my new one. On the other side, one dealer and one broker said prices were creeping up as Hyundai have stopped making the current one now and are running stocks down but demand is still high. I wanted to get in now for one of the current ones as I...

Got to say I love Santa Fe's. Got a new one early 2011, then decided to change cars last week as it was up to about 60,000 miles but after looking around at the options I ended up back at a Santa Fe again and just ordered another new one.

It can also be where you live / postcode as they sometimes generalise and lump entire postcodes together. I wanted a loan to start in business when we lived in Snowdonia and they said no then moved to Tewkesbury and they said yes straight away, even though it was a new address and we had more...
