Moving to the next Campervan site - the full rigmarole of what we do. 

Moving to a reel for my cable was a game changer, no more wet,tired arm winding it up and far quicker, doesn't take up much more room either

I use Ducksback circular bags for the electrical cable and coil it up like a sailor. It fits very neatly. I also cut the 25m of cable into two pieces 10m and 15m and fitted connector pieces to both and use the appropriate length to the electricity point. If it is further away plug the cables together. Anyway love your trip videos and hope to be down that way later on in the year.

I love Tricia's handy work. She has an answer for all things storage some of which I've copied. I like the cable bag so may have to get my sewing machine out. I must admit I use a lot of kitchen roll , tea towels or carrier bags to jam into spaces to stop rattling. All things I'm going to use. I keep a pair of rubber gloves in the cassette toilet area as there's that one occasion (in this country) where things are a little less hygienic. I'm loving these parking places. Do we have anything like them here. Oh now! Roquefort. Yum! Looking forward to that episode. We recently went for a wine and cheese experience where they served a variety of local honeys with the cheeses. Delicious ! Happy travels

Dear Mike and Tricia, your latest video brought so many good memories of our trip last year where we hired a AutoRoller 747 from Lux Motorhomes, Bathgate for two weeks to go to Burghley Horse trails late year. As a child and having been brought up for years doing caravan holidays it has always been a dream to go to Burghley and stay on the estate for the week of the horse trial. Dream for filled last year. So I fully understand your check list of does before you get ready to drive off. But it has to be said that from watching Bob Earnshaw and your good blogs it made it all sweeter that we did not look total numpties. As from watching you great videos and others we knew before hand what to do even to the point of looking at videos of the AutoRoller 747 and knew things about it even before we moved a wheel. We had a great two weeks driving down to Stamford in small distances and campsites with the van six days on the Trials Campsite and they back up in manageable drives back up to Scotland. Keep up the great work and so happy and look forward to see every one of your videos when they come out. Who would have thought you would have had snow and sunshine in the one trip. Big Hugs Gordon.

Love your videos Mike & Tricia, were you an air hostess Tricia, looking at 19:20, you’d do a great job. That town looked lovely and well done on your French Mike 👏, they love it when we try, although anytime I tried it, they answered in English!

What a lovely holiday you're having, the country side is so very pretty even though in autumn, and you always do chose good places to stay at... Keep safe....

That was interesting. Thank you.

Hari Om I always quite enjoy the stack and check pre-departure... but somehow there always something that escapes and clatters as one takes off'!!! YAM xx

Another great video guys. As always safe travels. X

Enjoying your adventures. I see that (just like me) you have your Crit Air sticker on the wrong side of the windscreen. I can't decide whether to get another one to change it or not.

I noticed you mention diswashing liquid in your windscreen washing. I have been told to avoid dishwashing liquid when washing a car and or windscreen. Apparently, dishwashing liquids can have salt as one of their ingredients because salt is a good cleaner. Now, you don't want salt residue building up in chassis rails and nooks and crannies. 😮

Excellent video. One benefit of the electric cable reel is that it stops the cable from becoming twisted and difficult to roll it up.

Well done you two. Good video.

Hi Mike & Tricia. We have a similar process when changing camp site and before we set off to go or head home. Great video.

Loving the videos Mike and Tricia. We have recently got our Carrera 194 and some of your tips have been super helpful. So looking forward to touring the UK and Europe when we retire at the end of the year.

Hello both loved the video how does Kiera like the van happy travels guys ❤

Great video thank you both , have you used much gas ? or are you able to use solar and site electric more .well done and good luck 👍👍👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇬🇧🇨🇦🦢

Great video guys, location looks fab plus weather picked up! Mike loved the French there is a role in the new allo allo series 😂. Tricia can send cookies from Christies the baker if you want? safe journey as always from Coatbridge

Hi Tricia and Mike, I like the toilet emptying point, no chance of splashing yourself with the blue liquid. It's no wonder nobody said anything to you two rebellious Scots flaunting the dogs on a lead sign. They probably didn't want to deal with Tricia, 😂😂😂😂 I know I wouldn't like a taste of her right hook. Keep up the organised work, looking forward to the next installment.

The foam you can use a thin yoga mat too.

That is very different way to dump waste than in USA. We dump both gray and black tank in to same out lets in the ground. Into sewer or septic systems. Very interesting vidio.

Loving the ‘pollarding’ not seen that before. Beautiful town/village Can I bring Harry around for the windows 😂

Hello You Three - greetings from Poland A very interesting video. Lovely visit to the village and seeing how you get ready to move off to another location, Sorry I have not been around for a few weeks but I have been in hospital again. Doctors found a 9cm cancerous tumor inside my lefy kidey. so I have has a nephrectomy to remove the tumour and the kidney with it. Luckily, the cancer hasn't spread. I'm now back home recuparating

I’ve noticed recently that more and more sites now insist on the use of green bio fluid in toilets, we’ve converted and only use the green stuff now. I hope you remembered to put the cap back on that toilet disposal point.

Obviously an organised crew! However, I must say that it appeared that Tricia was doing most of the work (without any complaints I may add). I brought this to my "better Half's" attention and received a three word reply, "IN YOUR DREAMS". Must be your charm Mike.

Love watching your videos, can I be cheeky and ask a question.We are travelling to France for.a 7 week trip at the end of the month .I’m worried about security when leaving our van on Aires .Any advice would be much appreciated 😀

YAY!!!!!!!!!!

Maybe better to use a bit of wash & wax on the windows than washing up liquid … which can strip what’s often used to wash/wax the vehicle…..I found out the hard way. Enjoying your French trip!

Tricia, thank you for your ideas in how to reduce rattling. I know the foam came from hobby craft, but what is it actually called. Really need some of this as I've been using tea towels and other cloths, but end up using them, then they are no longer clean or dry to go back as their job of rattle prevention. Thanks in advance. Love your films. ❤

Well done great video. Where did you get the windscreen scrubber/wiper from? I have a sponge one but like the netting one like yours

Do you dump your fresh water on a longer journey, when you might want to make a cuppa on route? Because with me it's not mpg it's cups per hour 😂 Cheers 👍🐸

I think people just aren’t brave enough to say something if you have your dog off the lead. I think it’s more respectful to keep to the signs and make sure my dog is on the lead when signs ask me too. Xx

Where’s your jack and wheel wrench ? as mines under the passenger seat where you keep your ehu cable
