Love it when I hear that guitar riff and know that Kev’s back with another vlog!

Love seeing what you cook up in the caravan as we are vegetarian. Still wondering whether an air fryer is useful for us in the van or not (where do you keep yours, my OH complains about lack of workspace 🙄) certainly saves the gas. We can’t understand why people don’t use their on-board facilities either. Our shower is great and we have to get up so often in the night - bring of a certain age. Thanks for sharing your cosy weekend.

Great video and lovely to see you both. As per usual you and Andy share the same taste in beer and Jack Daniels. Glad Storm Bert didn’t hit you too hard, it was windy and rainy, in the normally sunny Weymouth 😂. Again great to catch up with you both love Kim and Andy 😊 xx

Nice video you two, laughed at the filling the wine glasses to the same amount, we do that too! 😄 Nice cook up and I do want one of the front bike racks for my van too, they look great!

Thanks both for taking us along with you…especially as in partnership with storm Bert. Our caravan is all undercover on the drive fully winterised but seeing your vlogette makes us want to be away in our caravan. Thanks again both Tris and Nikki 😀😀

Great tips, we do love a winter trip in the Moho. On the battery front I can recommend Ecotree lithium batteries. We have the 230ah one installed in the van.

I've got a fogstar drift 105ah battery had it 6 months has bluetooth and heater not silly money either 🎉

Good tips. We learnt the hard way that grass and rain are not a good mix, especially with an awning turns into Glastonbury quite quick lol

Great tips guys. Good tip about draining the water systems if not using them, we do it every year (having forgotten one year long ago which proved a costly mistake).

Well I was going to ask if you copied our video, but then I remembered I saw yours first 😂 Great minds obviously!!

Good vlog. Great tips. Got a few of those covered. Especially the hard standing . The 7te bus does NOT like soggy grass....

Hi great tips we've got a 4x4 and still book hard standing love all season caravanning you see different colours its great. Our caravan is on our drive so put heating on . Thankyou. X

Great tips and ideas for winter. We’ve covered ours over in a Specialised cover and moved all of the cushions etc to maximise ventilation, including have two windows on vent position. As we have ours on the drive we’ve this year added an oiled filled radiator to keep the inside of the caravan around 5-7 degrees during frosty/frozen periods to reduce the risk of freezing pipes etc. Also a tip off a caravan dealer RUclipsr we have placed two moisture absorbers to top off the wintering of the caravan 😀😀 Thanks again for your vlogettes always great to watch Tris and Nikki

Nice video it amazing the difference they make

Thanks for sharing, very informative and something we all think about. The new seats are great and better quality than the original seating… looks great and keep us posted for the future developments/experiences with the new seating. All the best Tris

That was very interesting, new seats look really good. Thanks for sharing. I think we may have to do the same soon.

Damp can be a nightmare, you've made me think I better check mine soon too :) Good luck with it all.

Thanks for the review and update video both, enjoyed being taken along with you and seeing site and locations. Were currently at the CMAC club site at Crystal Palace near London 😀😀 Thanks again Tris and Nikki

They did a lot of work sorting it out ..but still there ..when we sold big Bertha the guy checked everywhere & no damp .22 year old ..Amazing .. just hope our swift caravan is good & stays good that is a 2009 model .. cheers Chris & Sammy

See. --- 'Caravan leaking issues'. Vagabond Life... (bailey damp issues).

I bought a brand new Bailey Pheonix in mid January, after a night of rain about ten days later I decided to have a look under tha caravan. I was horrified to see water running OUT of the caravan through a vent and onto the drive, upon examination water was running through the front windows and either side of the pull out table and onto the floor!. Also when I looked under the floor the floor edges were wet. One of the problems is rain runs down the walls and enters the back of the skirt moulding and enters the floor edge. This moudd has two parts and the back is not sealed to the wall, hence water runs into the floor. As you say they have sealed the top of the mould but I solved this problem by sealing ALL along these edges with white electricians tape. (diall from B+Q). Also ensure all of the corner and wheel arch moulding caps are sealed. I would also recommend you to check under all of the underside of all four corners as water runs down the awning rail channel and can get into the floor!. I have had three baileys and all have had damp issues. If your caravan has alu-tech you will likely have damp floor issues so chack it out after heavy rain!.. 'IS THIS REALLY GOOD ENOUGH BAILEY'.....

Great video guys

Bailey vans are renowned for it and if you have a problem its difficult to stop. The reason I can see is a flawed system on the wall to floor joint that causes the floor to act as a sponge via capillary action of water if it gets behind any bumper or skirt. No joke when I say water could be getting in behind the wheel spat and travel along bottom rail finding its way out there. When I changed to a motorhome, I had to ditch Bailey for Swift who have a completely different way of attaching the walls to the floors so this problem shouldn't arise. Giod luck.

Thanks for the update and glad you’re both moving forwards with sorting out the issues you’ve been having with your caravan. The repairs look good and I did wonder if it was linked to the skirts not being fully sealed. Kind regards both Tris and Nikki

Glad i seen this! Was looking at buying one of these vans but not now. Thanks for this👍

D4-4 for the win! 😀

It has been confirmed Sadie, you do work with my sister . You know the saying - it’s a small world 😁. Thanks for your thoughts on our question 👍. The most we’ve paid is £49 for a CAMC premium pitch at Cayton Bay. We have stayed on a lot of excellent sites costing much less than this. For us it’s a case of balancing site costs to suit our budget. Thanks again and best regards, Rob & Gail 😀

Great Q&A's guys so many questions through the vlogs this month all very interesting.

I always laugh when Kevin is getting told off for making videos

Great video guys

Great questions and answers both, all the best Tris and Nikki 😀😀

Nice video guys

Can’t believe how expensive the Go Pods are! Great video!

Lovely vlog. Some great questions. Do you have a tyre pressure monitoring system? We use tyre pal. We can monitor the pressures on the bus and also on the tow car.... ( or caravan i. Your case)

You will love Lady Margarets caravan club site. Shewsbury close. We're there Monday. X

Hello.

You carry a lot in your caravan. We only tow with the empty water containers and electric hook up cable inside the caravsn. The battery and one gas cylinder also remain in situ. Everything else goes in the car.

Hi guys very lovley food you was cooking yummy …got my taste buds going .. I do a chicken curry in the cast iron at home .. will do one when in caravan soon mmmmm all the best cheers Chris & Sammy ..

Hey I’ve just subscribed if I’m watching this right I have the Govee lights exactly the same as you and there just sitting around I was thinking of putting them in the van so if I’m watching this correct all I need todo is cut the plug off wire it to 12v and they work how they would from a house mains but if 12v I’ve subscribed and been looking every where for this please reply and great video. ❤❤❤❤

Too hilly for two oldies.

For your questions. What accessory do you want to get next? What editing suite do you use?

Can’t beat the lakes, lovely up there. Thanks for the review and taking us along with you. Tris and Nikki 😀😀

Nice place up there .. not been Lake District…will go up that way as long as you can have camp fires , as we love a drink round camp fire … cheers Chris & Sammy

My relatives, about 3 generations above me on my dads side, hailed from round Bowness My nan came to Leeds as she was in service (basically a maid) and never went back

And I just thought it was a really handy dust cap when I replaced a damaged one on the horse box. Every days a school day 👍🏻

I think for us after 2 months in Asia eating rice and noodle based food a Sunday roast sounds good.
