I've had my van for fours years now, its like my own personal anti-depressent. I'm a single mother and feel the restraints of city living constantly. My van gives me the freedom to leave manchester at the drop of hat and i have made the most of it. I've partied with friends in the van for one night piss ups, i've been to glastonbury festival with my kids and with my mates. Read more »

finally found motorhome parking after a few wrong turns.  Great place right next to Forum Tram Stop.  30 euros for 24 hours, electricity, showers and toilets and free Wifi.  It's basically just a massive carpark, full of campers and truckdrivers but with security. Read more »

I am wanting to convert my van to a camper but if it doesnt qualify for re registration here in the U.K can I get valid insurance when it is then a van with a bed and cooker but not a motorhome?? anyone know??

We're back home.

The first jobs done on the van were to clean it outside and inside.
I have several jobs to do whilst we are back, for about 6 weeks.

Looking forward to seeing some of the summer here.

hey everyone, just found this web site whilst trying to find places to wild camp with camper van around the sussex area.
looking for free parking (as always) where you can stay overnight and relax knowing you aren't going to get hassled.
car parks now have no overnight stay, which is unfair as who else is using/appreciating it other than us eh? Read more »

We have just been touring in our trusty Norma around the Yorkshire coast area. There are a number of excellent campsites on the cliff top in Whitby. Found a good website too for touristy things to do. http://www.wonderfulwhitby.co.u.k.

Next week we are hoping to take Norma round to Norfolk. Any information around here would be appreciated.

Whilst eating our lunch here at Mimizan Plage, France, we heard a helicopter getting closer.

I said to Abs it looked liked it was going to land, as I had seen a rough looking landing pad. And it did land. Not very well though.

Then it took off, disappeared, came back and landed again. We noticed it was a Police helicopter. Read more »

If you're wondering where to stay when visiting Dune de Pyla, let me give you some advice: Yelloh - Panorama Camping campsite.

Dune de Pyla is a magnificent sight. Europe's biggest sand dune. More than 100 meters high, 500 meters wide, 3kms long, and a fantastic thing to climb, and admire the views from.

However, choosing where to stay when in your motorhome or campervan is not so easy. Read more »

Last night we stayed at the great little campsite in Ascain, near St Jean de Luz, France. It cost €8.

Tonight we are staying at the motorhome aire in Biarritz. It costs €10. But you get a whole lot more for the €8 campsite. So why do people stay at aires instead of cheaper campsites? Read more »
