Well, my first solo trip went really well - don't know what I was so worriedabout - towed well, everything went ok - no problems at all. Can't wait to do it all over again now.

Hi all,I have been following the Forum for quite a long time now, but I was waiting until I actually knew when I would be getting a van before I joined and this was looking like it would be a number of years.

This is a serious query. I am about to start travelling in a campervan and want to take my small aquarium. Has anyone done this, if so what were the problems you encountered. Having lived in a unit I couldnt have cats or dogs so the fish are my pets and I dont want to give them away.

Hi out there. I have looked at the second hand campervan/motor homes and think that to get what I want I will have to have one converted. Want lots of windows....

Hiya all, Well I finally found the tug for the van. A 2005 Nissan Navara 3.0l diesel and for some reason I started calling her Bertha (one of the Butt Sisters) maybe it's because she's a bit of a big beast!!!
