FC = folding camper. Essentially the bottom half of a caravan mated to the top half of a tent. It folds down like a trailer tent, but the basic unit does not need any pegging down.

FC's and tt's are great and by far the best way of living in the open. We speak from long experience, having spent a lot of money on tents, motorcaravans and caravans.

We have also tried statics and cottages, hotels and cruises. Aside from the cost you have to book in and if the weather deteriorates you either go home and lose your money or hang about in the rain.

hi natrose if you go on the camping mag website you can either order them and pay by direct debit quartely or annually and get a free gift or they will ask for your postcode and they will tell you the shop nearest to you that sells them I did this last week and she said the new mag comes out today the nearest one to me is wh smith in leeds town centre maybe you have gone th the shops as they have sold out hope this helps
