New here!

Thanks for the add. It’s great to find something like this - we’ve had our Swift Freestyle 2009 for a year now. We’re not completely new to caravanning. My childhood in the 70’s was caravan holidays! I absolutely LOVE it - you just can’t explain it to people that don’t get it 😂
My mum gave us an old Elddis (30 years old!) we loved it and it literally fell apart 😂
So now we have our Swift Freestyle.
We haven’t been able to use her all Summer (lots going on!) but we are at last taking her out of storage for a weekend- we’ve been Googling and watching YouTube videos about cleaning water system and pipes etc - it’s a lot to learn.

Our life's haven't really been about camping over the years, have stayed in a few though and I just love it. So, I'm 5 weeks time we will be travelling to Spain for 3 weeks to collect our very own caravan. My mother no longer uses hers so we are having it. Lots to learn but hopefully will be some exciting adventures.
