Good for you on not giving it all up.  We started off camping with a tt and loved it.  Hope you have some great times in her

Weather protection aside, I've never understood the fascination with caravans over TTs and folders. I mean whatever you're in you still sit in the same field with the same views and the grass is just as wet outside when it rains!

You know what? I think you'll enjoy it more. We just got back from a try out weekend in prep for a long trip up to Scotland on a campsite with a lot of caravans and as I was cycling past the rows and rows of vans on a stunning Sunday afternoon, all these people were INSIDE sat next to their windows looking out. What's that about?

Sometimes (rarely) caravan owners give you an odd look as you set up your FC. But they change their views once they see how big a Crusader with awning fitted actually is. I got the old redundancy last year!!! But it won't stop me having fun in the Crusader. I love it to bits.
