 Thanks for all the tips and info

Glad you enjoyed it.

one little tip is buy a good condition used roofbox,then you got more to spend on other gear or even roof bars...people get sick and sell em dirt cheap if you look around.

We are still quite novice and after our first weekend we came back with a huge shopping list - I think we learn a lot from the people around us when we are camping.

1 weekend and a 9 night hol last year and I am hoooooked!!!!

Good luck!!

It's great when you're retired , you wait for a good weather forcast for the next few days, then off you go. When you get back ,you dry out all your gear re pack the trailer and wait for the next good forcast.
