Somewhere along the line I've managed to subscribe to this new digital magazine - possibly via one of the competitions Jo enters from time to time :). For a freebie, it's actually quite a good read and worth a look for anything camping/touring related - Touring Magazine | Motorhomes, Caravans...

Just noticed that I have a minor nick (only about 2 or 3mm) in the edge of my F45s canopy - the only thing I can think that has caused it is attachment of the Fiamma Privacy room's fast clip system. I've ordered a repair kit from Fiamma which will hopefully fix. However, I was intending to use...

Last year Jo made some lovely little dry stone wall models as Christmas gifts for family members which were very well received. A couple of months ago a family member asked if she would consider making a much bigger model of a well know Leicestershire landmark as a present for her husband (they...

I used these guys (Richard and Connor), after recommendation from @Mick, a couple of months ago to get my new car ceramic coated (see Ceramic Coating) and was so impressed with the results I immediately booked the Gnu in for similar. We dropped the van off with them first thing today and...

Has anyone fitted a roll out awning with a HiLo roof? Is it possible to fit one in such a way as the awning case sits below the height of the roof? I've done a quick forum search but all I can find is this old thread Fiammia f45s canopy what rail will I need with a Hilo roof which deals with...

We seem to be collecting tents and awnings so have decided to sell our Vango Kela 3. We have had it around 2 years but tend to only take it when we stay for longer than 3 or 4 days, consequently, it has probably only been up for around a total of 20 days. The awning has never been used...

We are still considering a re-trim and are just back from Camperjam where we saw 3 seat trimmers who's work we liked and who did RIB beds:- Coastal Customs - couple of positive comments in the forum and we really liked but Weymouth is a bit far for us to travel. Quayside Auto - really liked...

Just got around to reading the latest (June) version of the Caravan and Motorhome Club Magazine and there is a very nice looking LWB conversion in there from Ecowagon - limited photos but looks really good. I'm struggling to see how they have come up with the £80k price tag though!!

Just reading the latest version of the Camping and Caravanning Magazine and there is is review of QUQUQ (Cuckoo). I had not come across these before and the only reference I can find on the forum is a mention from @ausyray last April - seems he used one in a Tourneo before upgrading to a T6...

We have been following this popular (nearly 70k followers) facebook group for a while now - Max and Paddy are two gorgeous springer spaniels and the site follows their travels, mainly around the Lake District. One of their posts today has included pictures of their very nice looking T6 so I...

We took the mother in law out today - sat her in the front on the way no problem but, on the way home, we sat her on the RIB - for some reason she struggled to fasten the seat belt but after a bit of fiddling she managed it. When we delivered her home the seatbelt wouldn't release - managed to...

Hi, if anyone is going to the show before the Friday would you mind keeping an eye out to see if anyone has any decent offers on Cadac this year (not sure who will be selling them this year but there is usually a couple there including Cadac themselves and Towsure). There are not usually any...

For anyone that is interested; The NCC have a competition running this weekend to win a Hillside Birchover S Camper conversion:- Great oportunity to win a Hillside Leisure VW Campervan!

Is anyone else venturing out in their vans for New Year's Eve?

@Moose Ed, please pass on our thanks to Cookie for the flag we commissioned him to paint at Busfest last week - it arrived yesterday and we love it!! Can't wait to proudly fly alongside the Gnu at future camping and/or sailing trips!!

I've Just had an article appear in Facebook via "Insider Inventions" regarding the Doubleback Camper; I remember seeing this a few years ago and thinking "wow" but have not seen anything on them since and forgot about it. The article I've just seen is a regurgitation of what I've seen...

Picked this up from another site; it highlights the dangers of having gas in our vans. No full details of sequence of events, what type of cylinder was involved, how it was stored, etc., but it seems that the he picked the bottle/canister up from his friends last night ahead of a trip this...

When I first got my van I had an issue with the fuel gauge sticking on full - at the time I had been driving on some very steep roads in the Lake District and figured that it was down to the tank float (or whatever is in there) somehow getting stuck at the top of the tank when the van was at an...

Just gone out to the van and both front window were fully rolled down. It seems to have happened in the last couple of hours (I first went out a couple of hours ago to walk the dog and consciously touched the front screen to see if there was ice on it so would have noticed if they were down...
