The paperwork that comes with your CRIT' Air certificate is in English on the front, but in French on the back. For my own pedantic requirements I chose to translate it & I have copied the results here to help fellow pedants; others will just pull the sticky thing off & put it on the...

Not one for most, but a suggestion for a few genuine Wild Campers that need to conserve water. The Problem: The majority of our water wastage (as opposed to usage) in our motorhome occurred when washing our hands. Tap on, wet hands, lather up, rub well, rinse hands, tap off. Although it is...

From the horse's mouth answers to the latest taxing questions.... Information linked below only, due to their use of a chart that won't copy over too well. Strange that they use the term "Motorhome" despite using the term "Motor Caravan" on the V5 document, but I guess they should have the rest...
