Newly arrived here after years in tents

Hello, we've joined the CC even before getting our first box on wheels, as one way of finding out more, and have already learned much from reading forum posts here.

We're in our 60's, and have holidayed in tents since ever, mostly round the UK, and France from time to time.

Now we think we've settled on the caravan we're hoping to buy, a small pop-top 2 berth, as long as proper inspection & engineer's report go well.

Looking forward to a new type of holidays - hoping we still get most of the freedom of tenting without the faff of packing away wet canvas at the end, and to going at colder times of year too. Plan A is a trip round the Scottish N Coast next Spring.

Meanwhile I'm about to post some of those questions new people always ask, and hope patient people here are happy to answer!

Best wishes,

Richard

Welcome. I stared in tents, then trailer tent, then caravan, then campervan, now motorhome. Still yearn for the canvas when the weathers good but don't think Mrs SF would agree! Enjoy!Happy
