Hya, well we hitched up effortlessly, we had pre printed a list out from our computer and ticked it off as we went along so to remember to take everything we needed, which we did except for chairs to sit out in the awning on, and a watering can and funnel to fill up the toilet flush tank.
We used the site shower but used our caravan toilet. We managed to empty all the tanks no problem and fill them up ok, we forgot how to use the fridge and after about 6 hours it still didn't appear to be working after reading all the manuals and footering around with it all! We put some kiddy ice poles in it and went to bed, got up in the morning and they were frozen so it was working ok!
We all slept soundly even our muckle big dog. No need for the heating on as it was warm enough.
We went to Stranraer to a very small site, only drawback was lack of things to do with our kids, no park to play or open space to run round on really. But it was scenic, close to shopping and quiet and peaceful which was great.
Last night there was absolutely torrential rain and strong winds which we felt the van rock and worried about our awning taking off to spain! The poor sheep in the field sounded petrified and baaaah all night long the poor souls.
Took us longer to tidy up and pack away than it did to set up, we forgot to lock the roof heiki window so had to stop along the road and sort it when we realised it was vertical to the van - panic, luckily it was ok, no breakages! thankfully. Now it's safely stored away till next weeks trip to north berwick!
The Bailey Ranger 620/6 is a fab family sized van, and it's great having the fixed bed at the back for us weary parents. The toilet is a wee bitty narrow i would say, but otherwise everything is great and we're LOVING it!!!
