There's certainly a lot of good advice being given here.
Looks like there's ways and means no matter what the weather as long as snow isn't in the forecast !!
Thanks all.

Actually snow is okay as long as your tyres are good.

We got quite heavy snow on a UKCS Rally some years ago and it was okay.

Like most weather conditions in the UK, it all rather depends on how much you get and what other weather comes along with it.

Snow is a marvellous "cleaner" and makes everything look very pretty.

Winter tips I have been researching too:

1)Use Propane Gas as mentioned

2)Drain down as mentioned

3)Use salt in the waste master & Loo tank to stop it freezing

4) Cover & Insulate the Aquaroll & Pipe, onld coat has been mentioned but i have bough a proper aquaroll cover from www.bags2cover.co.uk this lifts the aquaroll off the ground also and has zip fastening & waterinlet insulation.

5) disconnect waste master pipes and use a bucket as mentioned.

6) Always keep fresh water inside the fan, and run your caravan on slow fan over night.
