It doesn't have to be a competition! I find it interesting how others do things. I couldn't help wondering how much you guys are paying for your Nespresso cuppas compared with a filter or percolator and site savings but that's your choice!
Many moons ago my young son calculated the money it cost his father to weekend in Dorset in a LWB Landy! A train and a taxi would have saved him a fortune! But he didn't choose to change either. He could have saved a lot switching to a Mini Clubman like me too!

I don't like to enter discussions like this because I feel it getting rather silly. ET I like your advice on this forum and is very much appreciated by me but have to say your mocking this issue is not useful. Our caravan came with a solar panel that must give you an idea that they are useful. Enough said.

coffeebreal9to5, it only started to get silly when totally uninterested parties started on about potatoes and spinning wool! Why would they post if they weren't interested in the subject? Trolls? Just to have a go at something they don't or can't understand? To show their complete misunderstanding of something that is growing in popularity and has saved many people a small fortune. Perhaps it's to show off their wealth? We can afford to go on the top sites for weeks at a time and pay through the nose. Perhaps it's to stop discussion on something they are too arrogant to accept is changing caravanning for the better. Perhaps it's just a threat to them being stuck in the matrix with their pegs and Calor bottles? Whatever it is, their comments such as they are, are not welcome and certainly not useful to a meaningful discussion. They are never going to 'get' it and as such, therein lies their problem. 'There are none so blind as those who do not wish to see' comes to mind. So what is their response? To take The Mickysf! That's all they have. Let them show their contempt - I think it's hilarious.

I'm glad you think it's hilarious, Merve, because some have failed to recognise the humour in certain posts and I thought for one dreadful minute that you were one of them.
My personal view on this issue is that I can't see the point in spending hundreds of £s just to save a few quid on lekky. After years of not having the luxuries in my vans, I now relish them.
However, that is my personal view, as I said, and I fully respect the opinions of others who choose to do things differently. Live and let live, eh?
What I do find intolerable, though, are the occasional posts trying to convert others to a different point of view and, worse still, the people who simply cannot tolerate different opinions and see them as a personal attack. They're not, they are simply putting an opposing viewpoint and the key is to see them as such and appreciate that people are different - something we should applaud.

It seems to be pretty much a habit with some regulars to chat about anything other than on topic when they have nothing constuctive to add to the discussion especially if they cannot refute previous thoughts/facts posted by others.

I opened this with a genuine curiosity about the technology and the costs involved and said right at the start it was unlikely to be for me and I got my answers early on . There has been a fair amount of input from the genuinely interested (to each other) but others much less so. How using a Nespresso Machine can be regarded as controversial is beyond me but some will find an argument in the most mundane subjects. Thanks again Merve but I think the children should be left to play now,
