I suppose that we mortals are just like caravans .. Some get to a grand old age without a problem & others fall by the way side for various reasons / inherent faults, but as most parts are easily accessible on both species it can be an easy fix just remember to keep the nose weight in check & the running gear well lubed and the keep to the service intervals...

Sorry to hear your highness is a little lop sided. I have had similar with no blood pressure at all from one side on a regular basis. I was told nothing to worry about. Hope yours isn't either. Take care.

May be one for the KIng,

Doggy days in Yorkshire, as we have the option of bringing Buddy or he goes on holiday to sons house what is there to do that we can do with the dog(s). we really want to bring him this time as this is our longest time we would have been away from him and as he has been with us all year think we would miss him to much if we left him behind :( :(

Any ideas folks??

It's a no brainer! Bring him with you.
Our two will have spent four weeks with us in the North West Highlands before we descend on the Woosiefest.
Sprokets site has good dog walks too. I'm sure I can help you teach Bud the way to the Black Bull :evil:

Yes bring him along, I believe there is a site dog walk for last thing / first thing. Our two are always away with us, Rex has only got two stamps left in his Pets Passport, they will be with us again for 6 weeks in Fr. Before the WOOSIE FEST. Lots of dog friendly areas around Pickering and area.

Just a quick update...

Well after having a 48hr ECG monitor on i was left with three lovely big 2" dia sticky glue patches on my chest tried numerous things to remove them but in the end i used some of this amazing stuff, worked a treat :woohoo: ;)

Other tests included a Echocardiogram & Cardiac Stress test Oh! and a chest x-ray, so hopefully when all of the information is collated I will be told good or bad what's going on ...

Fantastic people.

I'm guessing a few of the forum members have read about my incompetent Air Awning installation a few weeks ago at the start of my stay near Portsmouth.
Woodlands camper was good enough to think it worthy of renewing my Woosie club membership for a further year.
Well my recent week at Woodhall Spa I'm sure will confirm his faith in my total Woosieness.
Having refilled my water barrel to the brim I went back in the van to wash a few pots. However the water was only running very slow.
I returned to the barrel and immediately spotted the water gushing out at the inlet point. I entered it fully and repositioned the plastic lugs that hold it in place I had obviously disturbed it when replenishing the barrel.
At this point the chap in the next van came over to say that his old van used to give him the self same problem occasionally. I was quite pleased to have a chat about various things Caravan. I have mentioned before my deafness but because we were quite close and I was able to look at him whilst he spoke I did manage to get most of what he was saying. Which was a pleasant change.

I'm guessing a few will guess where I'm going with this now.

Yes after our chat I returned into the van to discover the sink full and overflowing. The cutlery drawer full the under sink cupboards swimming and the carpet squelchy. I obviously released the water then started to empty cupboards whilst on my knees in squelchy carpet. I just reached behind and deposited everything onto the surface above the fridge.
I then grabbed my bath towel and started mopping up squeezing the water from the towel straight out of the door into the awning. After an age I staggered to my feet on stiff legs having been knelt a while and nudged all the under cupboard contents that I had placed on the surface above the fridge straight onto the floor. So I had broken dishes Pyrex bowls etc causing broken glass at one end of the van and a flood at the other.
At least because I'm now unable to use a phone I didn't have to explain this senario to my wife until I returned home a few days later.
I'm just not sure now if she will allow me to go alone again.

Sir Crying, I reckon you are avoiding the fest by making up childrens birthdays :evil: :whistle: :lol:

Now listen if it's the pots you are afraid of emptying, I could do you a massive favour and have a word with our King I am on really good terms with him ;) ;) and can get you excused, I am only offering this to you as you seem a bit shy and reserved and maybe apprehensive. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
BUT dont tell Sir Rabbit or he will want to be excused as well, and that wont happen :evil: :sick: :lol:
