After this so called summer I have forsaken my much loved folding camper and bought myself a Freedom caravan. Its small, easy to handle and store and I dont need to upgrade my car to tow it. Im really impressed with it and have been away twice now just to get acquainetd with it. It came with an awning which will be extremely useful on longer stays and im looking out for a small awning for short breaks. I was sorry to give up canvas but getting it dry after wet weather is difficult for me as I have nowhere to erect it at home, at least with a caravan a bit of rain is no deterrent. I am considering a trip to France next year as well as in this country. A new lease of life - exciting isnt it???

It's always better to adjust to something more suitable if you can rather than having to give it up altogether so glad you like your new new lease of life in your Freedom caravan anyway...happy days ahead!  See you in Buxton 2013 lol.
