    How to be a considerate camper?

    Sorry if this has been posted before. As somewhat relatively inexperienced at camping in general (does D of E count?) and also inexperienced at spending time in a camper van, do you have any tips for fitting in, (hopefully) making friends, and generally having a good time (by all of us) on the...

    Holidaying in France post brexit

    We have now shifted our 2020 summer holiday France crossing again from July 2021 to the beginning of next year but I’ve heard that there may be an issue taking ‘personal goods’ to France after brexit with a limit on the total value. When (or at this rate, if) we ever get to go back we will have...

    Flag size

    Right then... I have just purchased a 6m extending flag pole to peg out & wave at everyone at our Forum gatherings. I think a 5' x 3' flag is best. Her 'indoors suggests a 3' x 2' flag will suffice. As a bloke, I think bigger is better. Anybody got any comments?

    Roof-Top Tents

    Hi folks, Is anybody in to roof top tenting? I'm thinking about it for my Caravelle as a substitute for an awning. If I bought an awning I'd be spending a bit less but the quality of roof top tents seems to be far better than an awning, plus it frees up interior space when travelling. If...
