Hello from a caravan virgin....

Hi all, firstly hello from sunny (well it is today!) Saltdean in East Sussex.

Tomorrow we take the plunge and collect our first caravan - a 2004 Coachman Pastiche 460/2. We will have a few days to kit it out etc, then on Sunday we're off to Crystal Palace for a few days for our first trip.

If that goes well, then after Easter we will be heading to Wales and Ireland, then up and across to Scotland, then back down through England and home for the summer.

Then, we are seriously thinking of selling up and going across to Europe for a year or so, with only one criteria - winter sun!
