Million Pound Motorhomes Sunday 8pm Channel 5

[st3v3]

Could you imagine him parked next to me and 1 cup wae a big fire at two in the morning. He’d sell he’s van next day and never look at a motorhome again.

Or us pulling up next to him in the lorry lol

Which one was Julian? Don't want to watch it again.

The nob.

Careful what you say, look up nob in any dictionary!!

 

[Deleted member 86180]

Julian isn’t a nob, he’s a proper knob!

As you know Bazz, that's what they say about boats - double the size, half the fun.

Absolutely Rob , plus the smaller the boat , the smaller the hole you have to fill with money,

 

[Robmac]

Was Julian the one who wanted to "mix with people of his social standing"?

 

[Wully]

Julian was the one who I think needed a van wae a big wardrobe so that one day he could jump out of it and be free.

I was on Windermere once when I first started boating Bazz. We moored up on a jetty overnight in our 16 foot cabin cruiser, on the other side of the jetty was a huge flybridge gin palace.

In the morning Julie and I sat on the quay with our camping stove cooking bacon and eggs and the bloke next door sat on his flybridge just staring at us. A bit later as I walked up to the shower block, he was coming the other way and he stopped and said "You know, my boat cost about a quarter of a million, I'm guessing yours was about 5 grand, yet you and you wife are having ten times the holiday I'm having".

Turned out he was Roy Walker of 'Catchphrase' fame.

I did offer to swap boats but he declined.

(sorry to those who have heard that story before).

I really love the idea of just driving off and stopping where you like , never saw a single no motorhome parking signe .

Followed by rich holiday poor holiday, in a motorhome

Watched it all through my next doors window, what a load of cr-p, my 6 grand van does the job every bit as good, and can share chat on here with real folks.

The Radfords came across ok they were the only normal ones on it. Trying to make a quid rather than spending a fortune anyway I’m biased I like the Radfords and what they do for there kids. We’ll done to Steve and lyndsay and the boys.

Just thinking... the other thread running at the moment about the £40 per night Pendine “aire”?

For an extra 20 quid you can stay with Lord & Lady wassname with the posh street food, on site 'loo of the year' and whatever other bells & whistles they’ve got on their site.

But that genuinely sounds a bargain compared to just a bit of tarmac with water and black waste facilities for £40.

Of course the main benefit of the Lord & Lady site is you’re mixing with people of the right social class, not working class oiks like wot I is ☺

The Radfords were the best bit, IMO

(although I’ve always really liked those overland vehicles - sigh!)

Or you can stay in a carpark overnight in Stratford on Avon for £20. These Two car parks are probably just the overnight cost not 24 hours so that site wae the posh bogs doesn’t sound that bad.

Land here and I will show you round the costa nothing..

 

[mariesnowgoose]

I wonder if Julien is a member of the other site?

No danger of him wild camping anywhere at anytime, methinks, c19 restrictions or not

 

[Deleted member 86180]

Maybe we should start a new class? The class of underprivileged 60’s and 70’s kids made good through long term hard work. Anyone think it might catch on? Perhaps we could call ourselves providers for latter day fellow adventures? I’ll get me coat!

Only joking!
