Just ordered a caravan, our first, due early 2018.

The reality is hitting home of the required preparations, have opened a discussion elsewhere on towbar advice needed.

Aiming to learn how to caravan in 2018, with hopefully a long distance adventure or two in our retirement thereafter.

In response to the question of which van? We're jumping at in the deep end with a Crusader Storm.

I intend to take it cautiously and am booked on a Practical Caravanning course in February prior to picking up the caravan. We also intend to learn how to caravan locally in 2018 before getting carried away on a distant adventure.

Looks a big van IL.  Wise move to have signed up for the course - I know people speak very highly of them.  All the best with it and do let us know how you're doing.

Welcome to the world of caravanning, Inside Left!

In case you are not aware, if you insure the caravan with The Club, you will get a 5% discount for taking part in one of our courses.

Once completed, they will give you a lovely certificate and all you need to do is quote the certificate number.

I hope you find the course really useful.  A whole new world has opened up to you.  cool
