Help from caravaners.

[Skribble]

As there is no caravaning thread I take it they hide in here.

Well I have inherited a caravan for nothing and found somewhere to keep it all year, kids are dead excited but.....

I need to know when do I start sporting dodgy sandals, getting excited about melamine, worrying about cassette toilets and hankering after a table lamp for the awning?

You see I wonder if I have the comitment to be a proper caravaner as I am unlikely to ever be seen polishing my "van" when I arrive on site and laugh a lot a people (like my PIL) that take it all so seriously.

Love the Lee evans sketch about caravaning .

Well we got ythe caravan and it is in better condition than we thought, only needs a couple of new tyres. Not bad considering it hasn't moved for about 6 years.

Inside is dry and just a little musty but not damp, it is of course all brown and beige but even brand new ones seem to be, so we will be redecorating with new curtains and throws until I can make new cushion covers.

OK I admit it I am quite excited about our first trip out

When's the first big trip, Skribble? Hope you have fun!

(Sneaking in at the back) we've bought one too after being committed campers, am loving the rain outside and warm inside scenarios. off to Devon at lunchtime today happy caravaning everyone!

Hi poptot, have a lovely break!.

Skribble, want to borrow a towsure catalogue?

We are going to use it next week, instead of goig somewhere nearby in case of mishaps of course we will be going a good few hundred miles . Festival trip.

Skribble, we are going to the Bongo Bash in Stourport, Worcestershire this weekend. Last year there were 195 Bongos in the Rally Field, so we're hoping for some lovely weather. Oh, in case you didn't know what a Bongo was, it is a Japanese People Carrier www.bongofury.co.uk
