We had a diesel cut off switch installed. Switch is near driver, but obviously not easy to find! Means it can't be driven anywhere. Think it was about £125 to have fitted.

Sorry, I meant gel sachets.

We use the gel ... no issues. Annually we take the cassette apart and clean due to calcium build up. It's not as bad a job as you might think!

If travelling it's difficult to know how far we will get before feeling tired. So we tend to stop about 3.00. Find some POIs on our route, an hour or two ahead and plot sat nav. Usually do plan A,B and C. This works really well abroad too (using other brands of app too!)

Ooh. 😋

Yes, remember Iain. A lovely chap ...

That is brilliant news. Hop on! X

She's risk adverse and just discovered how expensive ferries to Greece and then Crete are! So may not be coming at all now. Sadly. BUT interestingly it seems Aussies can stay in the EU longer than Brits. Australia and some EU members (such as D, B, Dk) have bilateral agreements where...

Opinions welcome. I'm a Greek resident. A friend will drive over in hermotorhome to stay for a few months and then would like to do a slow road trip back to UK, taking her over 90/180 in Schengen. Appreciate max for a UK vehicle in Europe is 6 months in 12. She has both UK and Australian...

Got my Irish passport in June this year. Fortunately Dad had all bar one doc needed. He had photocopy of the missing one, so easy to order a replacement. I applied to register my birth in Sep 2019. Got birth registration in February this year. So with demand and Covid, it wasn't a quick...

Last August we followed the Shannon slowly. Lots of free and lovely park ups.

Agree re bohinj. Cycled to end of the lake and then walked up to the Slap (waterfall!). We spent 5 weeks in SLOVEnia and LOVED it. As it was our first year full time, we were law abiding and mostly used sites. I did come across a book of agrorourism park ups (France Passion), but it was...

Ours faded too ... more noticeable on black. 😕

Having read about LPG shortages in the UK, we filled up before we arrived back. But the time came, we needed gas. How Far would we have to drive? Only 5 miles! The lady that served me said they had never had shortages or lack of supply. Their tank tells Color when it is at 25%. Within 4...

Definitely ageism. Last year I added a 52 year old to my policy who was driving the car back to the UK with Cretan rescue dogs. There were 3 of us on the policy already... 2 older codgers 😆 James and my father. The premium actually went DOWN!!!

Over in Crete, all I can hear is German voices (D and CH) with the odd French. Mostly flown in for holidays, but a few motorhomes.

Know a few folk done it or headed that way. Who are you using for BREAKDOWN COVER? We have RAC Arrivals Zone 3 which covers only European Turkey. Sterling, who covered us before, no longer offer breakdown cover since ******. Tourinsure, seem to be a German company, want about eur4000...

Well done. Quite something to have done. Love that Mrs G always smiling. Were you?

Loved Sicily ... spent 3 months there about 5 years ago. If you do make it to Crete, do shout. Enjoy your trip.
