Got fed up will b&bs, as worked on large building sites all over uk, so had long wheelbase high top Transit converted.

Then a small gap of 30 years, had our new Autotrail Mohawk 4 weeks now & promptly forgot everything I thought I knew.

Tents, Trailer Tents and Folding Campers for 25 years then took the plunge to a Motorhome 7 years ago, was going to wait until we retired as we couldn't really afford one but it is funny how you find the extra pennies and have never looked back since. For all those people hesitating on taking the plunge just do it I promise you will never look back. It gives you a new purpose in life having spent all the previous years chasing around after the kids.

40 years under canvas: Motorhome 2016 To 2020
15 with parents - and I loved it, prior to that we'd had tents.

Then 54 under own steam

Caravanning for 30 years, motorhome beginners
69 and a half.
35 years with caravans, bought the M/H last year, should have done it years ago.

First camper was a Standard Atlas Devon conversion. I would be around 25 years old. No photos unfortunately, but this is the earliest photo of me with one of my vans.
