    Hi Deb and Tony. Enjoyed your New Year trip - lot of fun in spite of the weather ! Quite right to insist on holding on to your van until the new one looks like arriving. No reason why you should be left without a van just because it might suit the dealers. Hope it all goes smoothly and looking forward to seeing it when it arrives. Take care.

    Hi both. Don’t blame you for keeping the van till you get the new one. What ever happens if the dealer has it or you sell it I’m sure it won’t loose value. Have a happy new year. See you in a bit 👍 Paul & Deb

    Good choice not handing the caravan in before your new one comes. Can’t help thinking the dealers wanted both end of a deal for them and to make money on the sale and then more money on the trade in.
    Can only see more delays on new vans this year because of labour issues and isolating.

Just got back from donkey creek 29th to the 2nd mostly full in old area and about 15 caravans/motor homes in new area too , looks like just a few bits to finish off,had a look at your pitch as im sure you said 51? im wandering too if they are building another shower block to cope with the volume . Good luck for march going seasonal there 👍

    Firstly Happy New Year. The right decision we traded our old van and ended up being van less for 10 weeks and this was not for a new van. They said they needed it so they could do a service and check the old van out. I thought when they checked mine out I would get the new one in a week it took 8 to prep the one we were buying

    Happy New Year to you both !
    Def right decision - the way the dealer situation is - pulling out of shows due to stock shortage, they will struggle to meet orders and March delivery is over optimistic.
    SL caravans would take yours and have it sold in days and someone else gets the benefit while you are sat at home with no van !!
    Didn’t realise you were going seasonal - Donkey Creek? - Are you giving up touring then?
    All the best for 2022 and many thanks for all your vlogs and great entertainment.
    Best wishes

    Happy New Year to you both great vlog as usual . So your buying a new caravan and going seasonal? Wouldn’t the caravan you have now be good for seasonal as it will be static for most of the time . Or is your seasonal ware you can take your caravan of when you want and bring it back when you want . And what about storage site? 👍😀
