Within the period of 40 minutes of me leaving the house to pick the mother in law up and returning back my folding camper vanished. It is a sky blue/torquoise top canvas with two blue weather sheets underneath. A Penine Sterling 6 berth circa 1995/6. Some of the letters on the side were beginning to peel. Slightly worn green carpet and flowery (ugh!) light blue and white curtains. Old damp stains on the wood frame. I live in the North Southampton area although it could be anywhere by now. My wife and three daughters are devastated. Holidays won't be quite the same. If you hear of anything similar being sold please contact me.

So sorry to hear of your news. I never realised that F Cs were a thieves target in the same way caravans are, especially that old. Hope you recover it soon.

Condolences to you and all your family.

Keep looking on ebay and the other auctions - it may turn up three too.

Saw what I think was a Conway, with blue cover, travelling north on the A485 north of Carmarthen, near Pontarsais/Alltwalis this morning at 0905. Was being towed by a white car of about 1990 vintage, make unknown. Sorry can tell no more, but was going in the other direction and still half asleep at that time.

Welcome to this site though what a shame your first post had to be bad news.

I can't believe someone else has had their pride and joy nicked, what bs  eh?

Will keep a lookout for it on my travels, we have a lot of travellers round here, if it was them.

Thanks to all of you for your commiserations and help. Susiewong I think you may be right about its probable destination - others have said the same to me in the force.

keep an eye out in freeads publications. dont know what they are called down south, but up here they are loot and free ads.  you can view adverts on the net, but you wont see the phone numbers hence they make you buy the paper ( or stand in smiths and read it)

good luck
