Sorry about that, mexman!  I shall therefore not permit myself to comment on the length of my extensions. 

A six footer eh!  Brave man.   Most of the women I have been out with measure that around the waist, but then again they are normally Margate girls..... 

I feel I may have opened an unsavoury can of worms here......

No wonder I'm single and have to get it up alone.....(groan......)

that did make me laff pandabloke!!   and sorry i cant comment on margate girls but they cant be any worse that the pyjama wearing scouse girls i see!! yeah and im talking about daytime too!! they seem to have evolved from "trackies" to PJ's!!    and before anyone shouts at me im a born and bred scouser too!!

yep it comes in handy having a six footer around for the top of the awning! but high heels are banned in our house..... unless im wearing them!!

Mexman I think we have got off the topic a bit here! Perhaps we need a new forum for sad but amusing posters who have a penchant for smuttiness. 

Anyway, am away for a week on the 18th to Somerset, a Haven site in fact - Burnham on sea. A bit commercial but the dancing girls are worth a look.  I am taking my floozie with me as security.  After all, if you can't pull a rough bird with a dubious accent at a Haven site, then better the devil you know, I say.....

Hope she doesn't read this as she is a beautiful but firey redhead.  Things could get ugly.  Mind you if your talking that's ugly, then you should see the dancing girls......

That is a joke from the Muppet Movie. I'm 39 for goodness sake!

P.S.  I am a shoe size 10.  Have you any spare slingbacks..........

Just don't go to Margate and ask to see a folding camper.  You may get more than you bargained for. 

Nice bloke, he was. 

It's amazing what Margate has to offer for £30 and the promise of an ice cream with a flake in it. (Stop it now, or you'll be banned.......)

So if I have to pack a Crusader up wet will it not get the matress and bedroom liners wet en route?   What do others do?

We leave everything in for the "summer" we oick it up from storage and don't open it till we arrive on site. All we have in the car are clothes and the cool box with the "fridge" stuff. We pack it up "properly" on site so we don't have to open it when we get home. We don't use the awning for weekends and have the unit up beds sorted aquaroll filled etc in less than half an hour. Putting up in the rain is no hassle if you bring them home wet you do need to open them up again. Same with a caravan awning.

I leave them up if its dry but down if its wet. The straps go through the "window" easily.

HI Jan, I have been unclipping the bedroom pod clips everytime, though leave the main roof bit attached and the curtain wires for the bedrooms.  can we really leave the bed pods still clipped up?   Usually we only need one bedroom but it is the clipping part that I really hate as that seems to be the hardest part of the whole putting up/down!  Clipping in the bed sections on the tent was also my most hated jog.  I have even managed to trap my fingers twice whilst doing this!

Including the bed pods it is only taking two of us around 20 min to have the main unit up and fully working though so quite happy with this and we have only used the camper 4 times so far so may get even quicker!

We have just come back from our third trip (first this year) with our FC.  We are really plaesed with how much you can load in them to save room in the car.  They are oh so much more comfier than sleeping on an air bed as we have got memory foam toppers on ours and they make a huge difference.  The main body goes up quite quickly - on our first outing with it last year, we ended putting it up in the rain but have been lucky the last couple of times.  We have had to pack it up wet twice, the second time being last week - luckily the sun was out by the time we got home, so it didn't take it long to dry. 

It's the awning which takes time to put up and down,, but you would get that with a caravan anyway.  All in all we are really pleased with ours.
