Good on you - hope for nice weather and take it safe and take your time setting up!

Take a pad and pen and list all things you need to do or want (there will be plenty once you have spent time in it!) and far more importantly don;t forget the cork screw and bottle opener for a congratulatory beer/wine on arrival!

As sunshinetours said just take your time and make sure you enjoy it.

Sounds like it should be good weather this weekend. We were going away but plans have been changed !

Thank you. Yes slow and steady will be the game. I have watched so many videos on The Caravan Channel & read so much on this forum & made lists. I have a list for what to do when we un hitch, how to level, how to then hitch up again & everything in between. Alcohol & tea bags at the ready.
