Newbie

hope you have a descent tow car for a twin axle. happy caravanning for years to come. 

Welcome  to  the  Fun  Farm   HM18  .  At  least  you've  done  the  wise  thing  in  hiring  first  'cos  its  an  horrid  feeling  to have  spent  MegaBucks  on  Caravan  &  car / Motorhome  only  to  find  its  not  going  to  do  what  you  wanted !!

Please,  please  do  tell  us  of  your  adventures  { &  the  comments  from  the  Teenage  fraternity  too  !} 

If possible book a couple of nights local to your dealer when you pick it so you can try everything out before heading off. Enjoy yourselves👍

Hi Andy.  Welcome to Club Together.  All the best for the towing course - I hear it is very good - lots of good feedback from those who attend.  Take your time when you pick up the new caravan and make sure you ask any questions- a list might be useful.  Do let us know how you get on.

Hello and welcome to CT and our hobby, do keep us posted on your outings.

Great idea to do the towing course before collection 😉,  I hear good reports of it. Good advice to stay for a couple of nights to the dealers in case you need assistance. There will be much to take in during the handover, don't let them rush you. If possible record or better still video the handover - it's amazing what has slipped your mind away when you go out for the 2nd time 😂.

There's a wealth of knowledge on CT and members, don't be afraid to ask for assistance on here or on site. The wardens are great if you let them know you're newbies.

Welcome Andy.  The towing course is excellent.  I did it in 2016, having been a "back seat driver" for several years.  Wishing you and your family all the best for your future caravanning pursuits.  You may find that there's often something that doesn't go quite as you expect, but always ask someone on site for help and advice.

Hi Andy

Welcome from me too.

Great to see you've joined the wonderful world of caravanning and may you have many adventures in the years ahead.

As you see from the above comments - there's plenty of people on here and at sites, who are only too willing to help.

Enjoy! 

Welcome from the Club!

Have a lovely tour in the Summer.

That is, if we actually get one.  

I was recently trained on the courses.

That will boost your confidence, no end!
