Hi All,
Although I have travelled France, Belgium, Holland and England competing in parascending accuracy competitions, also Photographing and visiting friends in my VW Caravelle for the last 12 years I decided that I would like to be able to stand up to dress in the morning and make meals in less cramped conditions.
After looking at various campers over four years and speaking to numerous motorhomers I took the plunge and bought my first motorhome the Hymer BM 640.
On the way back from wales where I bought it my wife and myself booked into a campsite south of Bristol where we spent our first night in our m/home. Since then I've been on a photographic trip to Bristol, a 3 day competition at South Cerney, followed 2 days later by a trip through France, Belgium to Numansdorp in Holland for another competition then a holiday for my long suffering wife. We travelled to Renkum Ede Oosterbeek Arnhem and Apeldoorn. Before leaving to catch the ferry home we visited the Openluchtmuseum near Arnhem then spent a night wildcamping before the trip to catch the ferry. The motorhome never missed a beat, was comfortable and the Ayotollah was at her most relaxed.
We paid a lot for the old girl but has been the best investment we have ever made. The only problems are parking down the side of my house (there is only about 3 inches either side and trying to find a reason to go out in her for another w/end. If anybody who reads this has a list of reasons/excuses to go out I'm all ears.
Hope I have'nt bored the pants off the people who read this!
Regards
Martin
