Hi Folks. I'm John, I'm a black belt geek and I love things with wheels. Four wheels are good, 2 wheels better but three wheels are optimal. If it has a V-Twin engine on the front it is nearing perfection.
When in the UK we are based in St Albans but we have a second home in France and the intention is to become French residents in 2021 and spend more time in France than the UK. When that happens, having a motorhome in the UK will become much more important so that we can pay flying visits to family and friends at short notice.
I am a practical person and can turn my hand to most things so owning a motorhome is one big adventure for me. There are so many systems built into every motorhome that seemingly need regular attention.
The project at the moment is to try to resurrect the Truma C 3402 which provides plenty of hot water but no hot air. I have spoken to a Truma expert and he is happy to take a look but if that fails, I fancy having a go at fitting a 2kW diesel heater.
I'm looking forward to coming along to a few rallies and meeting some of you... when Covid permits!

friends and family with lots of parking make life easy, we love ours we keep having a tinker with ours put some water in the other day and filled the gas bottle, just to make the decision now 
to go now or after the Easter rush, if we stop at home we are in a popular Spanish seaside town, if we go we might get away from the crowds and head into the mountains. 
Bob.
