My brother in law lives in Melbourne, his caravan is around the 2.5 weight. He has air con, 2 onboard water tanks and a solar panel on the roof. He also has larger wheels, for rough terrain - and Crocs! The Aussie vans don't seem to have very large living areas but his sleeping area is quite...

Hi John Both parks are nice, The Orchards is a larger commercial site, has a swimming pool, not far from the Yarmouth ferry, local pub. Whitefield's is a quieter site, closer Ryde, to beaches, the downs and Tesco. It just depends what your after. Both have nice walks. Tigger

Hi Is the motorhome show next week at Bath and West having caravans too? I seem to recal reading somewhere that is was. But when I go on the website it only says about motorhomes. Has anyone been to the Romsey one before. Thinking about visiting one of them. Tigger

lighten up Jimbob! It's just a bit off fun. I don't think there's not one of us that one or another of these comments we are not guilty of. it's what makes caravanning fun!

If you mean the Southlands site, I think it is because they are adding more pitches.

Reading all this talk about Marmite has made me want my favourite Marmite snack...Banana and Marmite sandwich! Will be trying the mushrooms and Marmite this Sunday. Not sure what Lava bread is?

we stayed at the chapel lane caravan site once and it was Crufts week, there were loads of dogs on site but none of them were any bother. If the c c are planning to start charging for dogs to cover costs for dog walks, I hope they will charge the damn kids extra when they use the dog walks as...

My sister bought a static after her divorce two years ago. She was paying

Hi This is rated as one of the best cards to use abroad. The next best one is the Nationwide flex card but this is a debit card, there are no charges with it. We always use this when abroad as you get the bank rate not the tourist rate. There is a website that is helpful, it is...

Hi M&M We have a baileys provence and there is three of us. We used to use the rear section with the bunk, but I could not sleep under the bunk because i found it claustiphobic (sorry about spelling). We now have made that end into a fixed bed layout and our daughter sleeps at the front. Tigger

We have Swifts and Swallows too. Not heard a cuckoo yet. Mind you I always find it a little chilling when I hear them...knowing some other poor babies are going to die soon:( Tigger
