We only bought our Van when we got the dogs. No one to look after them, so they come with us. It has it's pitfalls sometimes, but on the whole, it's a blast.

 

 

 

We're in it at the moment, Wells-next-the-sea. Fooking hot though..............

It's been rammed over the weekend. Something to do with some Tamills from Sri Lanka going to a shrine just down the coast. They came down to the beach on Sunday for a big party. Shame they left all their mess on the beach car park. :censored:

Other than walk the mutts, i do feck all when we're in the van. Nice and relaxing.

 

 

 

 

 

Don't enjoy the towing and setting up part though.

I hated the towing I always used to go middle of the night --after a nightmare Friday afternoon trip to mablethorpe ... in the end I left mine on site and paid a bit extra someone down there bid me on it and that was the end of it ... :laugh:

I looked into it a while ago mate. It was the depreciation of the van that put me off. £36,000 for van, the site I was looking at didn't like vans over 10 years old. So £3,600 lost each year coming off earnings plus site fees etc. I know you can sell them second hand but seemed a lot of hassle to me.
