Hi all, thought I would introduce myself as a new Motorhomer after many years in tents and trailer tents. Just getting started into the world of tin tenting and this year will be our first full year. A few weekends away so far to learn the ropes before we hit Europe (if they will let us back in) in the summer. Look forward to meeting some of you on our travels over the coming years as we edge ever closer to retirement, but for now weekends and a summer 3 week break on the cards. Hope I don't ask too many stupid question and some day repay any hints and tips from you all.

Safe travelling everyone and keep a lookout for us (picture attached).

Hi to you John and Helen and welcome.  No questions are stupid if you don't know the answers.  We've all had to start somewhere.

Enjoy your new adventures.

Our friends have just bought a similar Lyeso to yours. They head off to France and Spain at the end of the month and don't return until July.

Enjoy your new Motorhome John and Helen. Quite a change for you from tents and trailer tents I guess.  You’ll love it I’m sure.

Hi J&H

It was lovely to read your post as I have today just posted my first discussion.

we too are new to motorhoming following years in a tent and we are not yet retired so we are eager to get as many breaks in as possible.

Its all very exciting and this forum is very comforting.

I hope we bump into you on our travels.

Stay safe and have great fun.

ps have you driven it yet Helen? I want to but very nervous.

Chrystal my hubby just the same. He can't wait for our second trip. We are afraid that we have forgotten everything we learnt from the first trip.

Hopefully practice makes perfect.
