Hi All,
Our wait doesnt appear to have been too bad in comparison with others (about 7 months) but WOW it was worth it.
We picked up our Cali on Friday afternoon from Breeze Poole, drove home, changed the alloys over (selling the Woodstocks & tyres in accessories thread), packed up and headed off on Saturday.
We managed to get a last minute spot at Bath Marina Campsite, just a couple of hours drive through beautiful Autumnal countryside (pic attached)
Had a great time at the markets; we used the Park & Ride facility just up the road (beware if you decide to do this its pitch black and very muddy on the towpath to the park & Ride).
Clearly lots to learn about the van (not least how to turn off the 'Living area' lights which is no mean feat when you didnt know about the rear lights control button by the driver & passenger reading light switches!!
) and came away with another list of 'things we need'
All in all a great first trip.
Just having S5 tracker and ghost fitted then we might head off to the beach carpark to cook some lunch....because we can!
