Greetings you peoples!:yeah:
L&A = Laurence & Alison, and we've been motorhoming for quite a few years now.
Firstly having borrowed Mum & Dads Ford Autosleeper around 1994ish and ended up using it more than them, eventually they had to go and buy another for themselves, smart move eh? :thumb:
We completely wore that van out, engine, fittings and all, and now have a Talbot Bedouin that we have had for around six years-ish. The last three years we had completely neglected our van mainly because of a fear of expected high cost MOT repairs and the horrendous cost to insure. Just got the van back on the road for a total cost of £846... Road tax, insurance, MOT, four new tyres, complete exhaust and small MOT failure jobs. All done and ready to GO! Yippee
No need for me to tell you of the fantastic times we have had in our two vans! along with four kiddies who will have many fond memories for the rest of their lives... Sadly all now of an age where holidays with Mom n' Dad is no longer Kewl... :cry-smile:
This time round as it will be the two of us, I'm planning on fitting a tow bar and hauling along with us my classic BSA motorcycle, hopefully we'll be parked up somewhere cheap enough and then spending time riding around. We found there are too many narrow roads and crowded parking places and before you know it... Empty Wallet!
Some of my questions will be about camp sites accepting motorcycle trailers and or additional costs etc. Anyone else motorcycle? Certainly would be nice to meet up with anyone that does.
