Hi folks
Thought I'd better stick a few words down to introduce myself.
Just migrated from the other MH forum, thought it was about time to broaden my horizons.
Okay, me and the OH have been motor homing for some years, tried tents and caravans prior to buying our first MH and have never looked back.
Spent a goodly portion of my youth with HM's Grey Funnel Line, specifically the Fleet Air Arm, something I wouldn't have missed and would heartily recommend to any youngster looking to get out into the big wide world.
I spent a goodly time working in the dark murky world of HGV mechanics before deciding to have a change - heck, what a change that was - I became a civil (or as a lot would say 'uncivil') servant working for VOSA in Enforcement which gave me a fairly good knowledge of Road Traffic Law.
The OH spent her formative years in the WRENS, (that's how we met folks) then became a mother and keeper of the purse. after the kids grew up, she went to work for BBC Local Radio, doing the "OMG it's early" shift for over 20 years before being made redundant in the cuts last year. At a rather fortunate time she would add.
So, now retired and spending much more time travelling to places we've not been before, mainly due to lack of time (that awful four letter word 'work' kept getting in the way).
Now on our 5th MH (2nd Hymer) and loving it, we had the previous one for 7 years - hopefully it's the last - don't think I can afford to do it again!!
Anyway, that's me and her - hopefully we'll get to meet up with a few of you on our travels, both in the UK and across the water.
