Hello all and thanks for letting us join. My name is Phil and together with my wife Cath we have travelled extensively in Europe for the last 16 years in our 2003 Hymer B524. The van,like us, is now getting old but has been very reliable. We have owned it since new and despite looking haven't yet found a van we would replace it with.
We normally spend three months, Jan- Apr in Austria and Southern Germany, for cross country skiing, then four summer months on the continent hill walking and cycling. We just managed to return home before the lockdown but we're never asked where we had been.
Our van is now on SORN, no doubt like everyone else, and we just hope that we can all get through this terrible time and continue with our lifestyles.

Welcome from another Cumbrian, one now exiled in Devon. I see you are based in Penrith, the most mis-pronounced town in England. :)

Many thanks for your posts. I agree with Brian, Hymer have gone for bling, making their vans longer and using lighter materials to keep them under 3500.

Hi and welcome.
I think this forum is keeping many of us sane in these strange times so glad you've joined.
We've been away touring Europe starting about now for years. It is strange not being able to do it.
We live in Lancaster now but used to live in Lindale near Grange over-Sands.
Steph and John

Welcome from another Cumbrian, yes it is empty pity we can’t enjoy it
A friend from Lancaster was sitting in her car on Morecambe prom today and asked by the police why she was there. It was totally empty apart from about half a dozen people well spread out on benches.
They told her to go home back too Lancaster.
