Just got home after a night stop at Briersfield...

Well pleased with the new M/Home .... pulls like a train even with a toad on an "A" frame...

Oodles of locker space and an adjustable garage that`s as big as our RV`s was... so storage will not be a problem...

The Air suspension is superb... all the electronic add on`s we have yet to sort out exactly how they work... they did show us, but there are so many we have forgotten what they told us...

Got Sky dish with Internet TV and internet.... for got how to work that already... :RollEyes:

As far as I can tell we are getting approx. 22 - 24 to the gallon... maybe a little more or less... :Cool:

The 6 speed Manual/Auto box is a treat to drive... and purrs along in 6th with toad on the back at 2,100 rpm & 70 miles an hour...

Any regrets in such a short time.... NO... except the space to stand up and walk around inside, but we will over come that...

Just looking forwards to going away when we want and to where we want without holding an inquest with google to see where the LPG stations are, will we get down the lane that leads to the campsite, will the campsite be able to take our size... etc, etc..

[HI]Going to be picking a lot of peoples brains at Shepton[/HI]... how does this work,,,, how do you switch this on that on..... :RollEyes:::bigsmile:

God loves an optomist..

Mo lovely van just how much did you get for the urn then?:ROFLMAO:

That "Urn" is priceless... :Cool:

If it means Sian hasn`t got to fiddle around with that kettle and little gas cooker at shows what ever, it would have been worth it.. :thumb:

Are you trying to tell us Funsters that we will have tea made from a vestibule that at some time in history contained your skiddies.

That's the last tea I'll have at a meet, bacon butties okay but I'll bring my own tea thank-you!::bigsmile:
