Hi carl helen and ethan, :Smile:

I'm Claire (33), Matt is 35 (nearly 36) and our daughters are 7 and 4. We picked up our motorhome just over a year ago but haven't been away as much as we'd hoped. Here's to the next 12 months. :thumb:

Hi Carl, Helen and Ethen,

We are Paul 40 Nikki 40 George 13 and Harley 11 and Tara the little big Newfoundland dog.

Notr alot of families about but then again its nice having such experienced friends that we have met (and older poeple make you feel young :winky:)

We get away often and aim for at least two weekends away per month if finances and work permits. The kids hate it, allegedly and say that there mates at school call them gypsies, but I know they love it when they are away. :thumb:

Been alll over the place but specilise in France and the remote parts of Scotland.

Enjoy it,


wow reading back this post looks like it should be on a dating site.:Blush:

Hi Carl Helen and Ethan :thumb:

We are a family of 3. Mark ( me, 42 ) Nicky ( wife, 40 ) Ben ( son, 10 ) + 1X black labby called Poppy, aged 7 !:shout:

Caravanned for about 7 years owning various tourers, last two being new twin axles. New to M/Homing ( June 09 ) but managed lots of trips away due to the flexibility of M/Homing and being able to get everything done on the drive.:Eeek:

Return to the dark side of caravanning ............ Not a chance ............NEVER !!!! :ROFLMAO: ::bigsmile:

Nothing wrong with a family meet Carl, In fact previously have thought about it on another forum, However with Motorhome fun, all meets are family meets. :thumb:

The idea is unlike some other forums, no one is excluded. If they want to come in a tent all are welcome.:thumb:

So all you need do is find a family orientated site and then arrange a meet there. Im sure others without kids would still want to come. We are off to Cornwall to a haven site in October half term with all bells and whistles for just £15 pn. Long way from you I know, but check out peran sands with Haven for an idea of a family site. However not my idea in high season, we are only going because its cheap and about to close

Sorry haganap, did not mean to upset any one. all i ment was a family orintated site were kids can play and get out and enjoy them selfs, whilst we have a few beers and a chat, i did not mean to exclude any one,
just make people like me untill a few weeks ago feel that rallys are for all and familys with kids can come and enyoy,
i will have a look around for a family site and maybe come up with a meet for all
