Hi CC

It is great feeling changing caravans.

Just a small tip.

I put our port glasses somewhere 8save in the house when I cleaned my other caravan out and it was about 3 months later before refurbishing the next caravan, put the 2 bottles of port in and not the glases there still somewhere save.

Trip into Vinnies 4x 50 cent glasses, 2 extra this time so we can share our evening port.

Enjoy your new caravan.

Congrats Marjoleine and John. You won't know yourselves in you new rig. Do you have an ensuite?
We emptied our Bank Account last week too.
Bought a new (2yr old) Holden Colorado Style side with a hard Torneau Cover.
Wasn't the one we started out to buy but we are very happy with it .
Hope to see you out and about soon.
Cheers
Kathy
