Hi from an ex CC member some 20 years ago returning to vanning now that I and my partner are retiring (early!).  Made the mistake of going to the NEC earlier this month and ended up ordering a new Swift Fairway 635 TA just for the two of us, mad or what.  Even just swapped out my Disco Sport for a Merc GLE to get better towing ratio.  Looking forward to the spring when the van turns up.  In the meantime busily trying to put back together all those extra bits I got rid off all those years ago. Biggest headache is deciding what mirrors to get now that car mirrors are such weird shapes.

Welcome to Club Together asl. I also came back to caravanning after having given it up for several years. You soon get back into the swing of things. I'm sure it will work out well for you and that you'll be able to enjoy your retirement visiting lots of lovely places.
