I used to be a regular poster on this forum, originally under the name of Rob T then changed to current name unexpectedly after one of the numerous site upgrades. Been a few changes to the site since I first started posting, used to be all posts were moderated before being displayed. That meant if you tried to post a reply on a Friday night it could be Sunday or Monday before it appeared. Didn’t make for smooth communication. Then came the online and active ”Mods” similar to what we have today. I believe Damien might have been one of the original ones although at first they were nameless, only referred to as Mod 1, :Mod 2 etc.
There has been a lot of characters contributing to the forum over the years, some positive contributors, some not so positive. Personally I always enjoyed the contributions of Lord Brakewynd although he wasn’t everyone’s cup of tea.
Sadly though after 36 years of caravanning I’ve decided it’s time to give up this past-time that has given me so much pleasure. Or perhaps I should say that time and age has made that decision for me.
i would like to say thanks to Damien and Parksy for their work in keeping the forum running smoothly. Special thanks to Damien for very helpful advice on numerous occasions regarding caravan maintainance . I note there are still a few old forum acquaintances around such as Dustydog and ProfJohnL, my thanks to them and others for all the pleasurable and informative discussions over the past years
The caravan has now been sold and in the process of selling off the few remaining accessories. It’s been a difficult and , at times sad, process but the head says it’s the right decision although the heart is maybe not so certain
i really just wanted to wish all forum members, new and old, whether we’ve had conversations or not, all the very best for the future. I hope you all have many more happy years of caravanning. I think the future of caravanning might be a bit uncertain so make the most of it while you can.
Safe journey and happy travels.
Rob
