Thankyou both for taking us along. The vet was a good find 👍🏻 Wilf is such a good boy running off lead and less reactivity. I think it’s probably down to feeling more secure with you guys (as well as the cheese 😜) Park ups have been amazing and free electric was a bonus 😲 I’ve been thinking of you in that heat but glad the maxi fans have been working well. Ours has suddenly stopped 🥵 already looking forward to the next vlog x

Loved this ❤ You are really making the most of all your modifications now, great to see! I had no idea some of the French Aires are free, thats amazing 🎉 great way to get support into the local towns. One of the vanlifers I follow said there are issues with crime around aires, but they were staying in what looked more like a large motorway services, not like these lovely little places you've found, these look lovely, and space to be able to walk the dogs before you hit the road too. Was the sound and light show in Chartres loud enough to worry the dogs? One of ours doesn’t like boomie noises. Looking forward to the next video of dog travel tips! Great!

I recall you had to walk back from the light show in the dark. We always carry a high power LED torch at night. We got a Shadowhawk, LED Super Bright torch that is USB rechargeable from Amazon for about £25. It’s a hand torch for Dog Walking and Camping. Some of them come with a belt pouch and if you turn it on in Bridgend you can see it from Pen Y Fan.

What a wonderful park up Pacy-Sur-Eure Free Aire is next to the Chemin de Fer de la Vallee de l'Eure (Eure Valley Railway) is. We were there beginning of May, on our way to the U.K. it’s a shame you didn’t go on the train though. We travelled from North Valencia to U.K. We stayed on Aires the whole way up to the tunnel didn’t go on one toll road. Enjoy your trip

Hi all. Great vlog I’ll be really interested to see what you can do for 3K. Its such a lot of money but it goes nowhere nowadays does it. Think we spent 2k in two weeks when we went!! No idea how but we did have a few days in Switzerland which is so expensive. We can’t wait to take early retirement and we will be doing similar to you ❤
@redsgotravels
@redsgotravels 28 дней назад

Once in Europe we got our dogs two pet passports from the vet in Brugge Lieve Ryiek spelling might be wrong. The vet explained she was doing nothing illegal. The pet passport allows for 18 visits to Europe with the proviso you get the rabis injection done in Europe every three years. Hope this helps. Pet passports were a fraction of the AHC.

Love Chartre and always make a point of staying in that same aire you were in but as yet have never seen the illuminations , must do it when we come down this year . Just keep a close eye on the dogs this time , no running around getting them stitched up at the vets , although we did nearly catch you up on the way down . Have a great onward trip , cos when you come back , we'll be getting ready to go . Take care and love from us old Redders's .

That’s a great tip about the vets, we’re doing our first European trip next year and I was thinking about Abbeywell for the AHC’s but was concerned about parking the Motorhome as my wife is disabled so I would be taking the dogs in, I’ll also be keeping an eye on your budget travels being a tight Yorkshire man. Great videos by the way.👍

Hi, great venture! Will give a lot of people confidence to travel knowing it’s possible on a small budget. I noticed your clip on 12v fans, can I ask where you got them from? I’ve been looking for similar but can’t find any like yours. Enjoy the rest of your trip.

Wilf what a little star, bouncing around in the field. Dolly and pippa are so good with him. What a great vlog thanks for sharing, was it only £99 for Wilf to get to France, and is he getting a European passport while your over there. Looking forward to next vlog, not envying that heat your having enjoy till next time. 😊

No diagram unfortunately, I just used a volt meter on continuity setting and worked out what did what in position 1 and 2 , I put a jumper lead across the top connections, the remainder were just switched , can’t recall the connections, but it’s fairly straightforward , I’d just recommend getting the bigger switch , the smaller one is quite fiddly 👌 this may be of help 🙂 www.amazon.co.uk/Heschen-Universal-Selector-Changeover-Terminals/dp/B07L8SJXGV/ref=asc_df_B07L8SJXGV/?tag=googshopuk-21&linkCode=df0&hvadid=696285193871&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=15724669613946821040&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=1006886&hvtargid=pla-2281435178098&psc=1&mcid=0cf1fd78953337d0b3e61f4ecf88ae2d&hvocijid=15724669613946821040-B07L8SJXGV-&hvexpln=74&gad_source=1 Check the images for polarity 🙂

@@redsgotravels Brooklyn is a rescue as well and 18 month s younger than the girls who are both 11 yrs He had a very tough time with a man that smoked…saying no more but no animal should suffer as he did. He is timid but gaining his trousers and rapidly growing out of his shorts. My Penny is his motherly guider and he is always with her. He does have renal disease but filtered water seems to have helped as well as his meds.

@@redsgotravels Brooklyn was petrified when the first car passed us on our first walk around the roads. Lorries, cycles, scooters, horses all had to introduced. He is still nervous when he goes somewhere new but as long as he sticks with Penny and myself he copes. He likes to sit and watch parents making bucket sandcastles with their children on the beach. He will sit on the prom fascinated. He checks prams and wheelchairs too. I would love to know more of his past before he was homed to someone who was not a lover of a tiny little dog. He is very small even for a Papillon. He loves life now and milks everyone with his cute love. 😄

Hi, A recent new subscriber here, and really enjoying your budget challenge so far as that works out to be a monthly figure I was thinking about the practicalities of keeping within for me and the wife. We're on the look out for a motorhome so we can put it to the test ourselves, so your current series will be really insightful 🙂 Also appreciate the review you did on the Ohrex SatNav, which looks great value. Just wondering if it's possible to change the units from imperial to metric, for those continental trips? Also notice that you have a different mounting for it in this video - was that easy enough to source and what was the issue(s) with the original? Hope you have a great trip and looking forward to the next instalment. Cheers, Martin

@redsgotravels 21 день назад
Hi Martin ! Thanks for joining us and happy hunting with the Moho ! 👍 the ohrex does indeed have the option to change units, the original mounting kit was very sturdy, however our drop down bed was the reason it broke ! We now ensure we fold it away before lowering 🤭 we got the replacement holder from Amazon, but the one it comes with is good, just don’t put a bed with 2 people in it on top of it ! ❤️🙂

Hi Really enjoying this current trip We usually take the Eurotunnel but this time I’ve booked the ferry and pet lounge. Is there a pet reception at the ferry port like the Eurotunnel or do they come to you to scan the dogs ?? Thanks xx
@redsgotravels
@redsgotravels 26 дней назад
Hi Jayne, It’s even easier than that! At the point of check in, they pass you a scanner and you do it yourself. Don’t even need to get the dogs out of the van. Ours much prefer it as they didn’t like pet reception on the tunnel (I think they thought it was a vets waiting room) 👍😂

Hi both - couple of questions - what awning do you use - looks like you fit it to the wind-out on the side of your van - any issues with gaps between the van and the awning or is it just a non issue - what’s the minimum number of nights you would need to stay before you go to the trouble of erecting the awning?. Also, what fans are you using ? Thanks - PS Sainsbury’s Bridgend diesel yesterday £140.9 - cheaper in France !

@redsgotravels 28 дней назад
Hi, we’ve got a kampa 260 air. No issues with it fitted on the awning, there are places you can fit limpits to sucker it to the van, no problems with wind or rain. We were talking about minimum nights before we would use it and both said for the effort it needs to be 3 nights for us, or 2 nights at a push. We use a maxx air above the bed and a cheap version over the kitchen, they give us a lovely airflow. Sainsbury’s Bridgend is always great for fuel prices!
