    Knowepark outshine Brownhills Hymer

    I speak for myself and for my own experience having bought a new motorhome from Brownhills several years ago i had the unfortunate experience of it being serviced by them.

    Induction Hobs - The Future?

    I think many restaurants use induction hobs as they are cheaper than leaving gas hobs on constantly and are far more controllable, at least the more up to date places do. If you look at the Great British Menu program you will see the kitchen is all induction.

    How do you get on without a garage?

    I suppose it depends on the size and storage facilities of your van. We have an Autosleeper Warwick XL and find we have plenty of storage with the upper lockers and the under bed storage as well as the over cab area. We did downsize from an A Class Rapido and when we changed over and emptied the...

    Rapido Central Door Locking

    No, I took it to a garage and they found the fault and put in a stronger better more flexible wire. They took the door panel off and found that there there was not sufficient power to operate the lock. Wasn’t expensive £80 I think. I could hear the mechanism trying to work but didn’t have...

    Parking in Whitby

    Looks like I'm rejoining the tugger brigade.

    You do know that you will have to stand to attention while imagining having the buttons ripped off your waterproof jacket, removing the baseball cap from your head and being stamping it into the ground, then your awning winding handle being snapped over a knee before being throwing it into the...

    C&CC Price Rises

    None of which means anything unless the total running costs are known as well as total income. That surely is the way to determine whether the charges for membership and sites charges are reasonable.
