On Friday we were on an Aire in France waiting for our ferry the next morning after having spent the last 5 months travelling down through France, Spain & Portugal to Southern Spain for 3 months then back up through Spain & France home, I started going through all the help and back-up we had gained from being members of this forum. These included route & site guides, advice on the use of Aires ( ex-tuggers so new to us!). We have help with security issues, awnings and their attachments, basic stuff like cola for cleaning grey water tanks & laundry tabs for the loo. I have a MiFi complete with '3' PAYG sims that have been invaluable (Thanks Minxy Girl) Have a wifi booster aerial & set it up using instruction from this site. Recommendations for dash cams/refillable gas/Sat Nav/DIY Duvalays have all been read. Campercontact has been downloaded and used extensively. Paying for the tolls in France & Portugal, where used, was easy after reading about tags and pre-payment. Very importantly we have saved a fortune & lots of worry by reading about how to fix issues with the Alde heating & using the Fridge on gas ourselves rather than paying for it to be looked at. We have become far more confident knowing that if we need to we can "look it up or ask the question"
Today, I realised I was a "Read Only" member, subs were due! Did I renew them, you bet & for the next 3 years, best money (investment) spent after buying the Motorhome itself. So a big 'Thank you' to everyone whose advice we have used over the last 12 months.
