...and I can tell you this Summers alot more fun than winter, gone are those nights of standing in the rain and wind in the dark filling up my aquaroll! a real pain as Andrew Ditton warned me!

But all in all pretty good, in 6 months got through 4 bottles of gas, approx 150 fills of the aquaroll and 3 caravans, but also managed to give up smoking and cook on a barbeque without burning everything!

Hello again James, glad you're enjoying yourself, we arn;t far behind you. and yes the  summer is looking good so far and the mud is now behind us hopefully,. got into a bit of a routine with the water / etc, takes me about 10 mins every morning to fill the aquaroll .empty toilet and waste,we are still behind a pub on a CL site so I get this done in the mornings before they open up as the emptying point is close to the beer garden.  we will be moving down to Devon / Cornwall for about a month on tuesday first stop is Ross Park for 10 nights after that no idea yet, will spend a couple of days looking for sites when we get there, keep having fun and try not to get through any more vans and don't burn the steaks. .........Mark & Jan 

This full timing sounds good, are there many doing it James? I guess you're restricted to so many days at one place so you just move down the road & back again do you?

Hiya BasilB, there are a surprising number of people doing it actually, motorhomes seem to be getting quite a popular way of fulltiming (ok if you got the money to buy one in the 1st place and run it!).

You can move around a bit, but for intstance at the Brighton Caravan club site your allowed down there a maximum of 28 days, and then theres a clause so you cant return for a certain period of time, cant quite remember how long, but its a few months. Alot of sites do this so that no one can be counted as A resident..

It is good but can be expensive down here in the South, on average I suppose I pay £80-£90, sometimes more.

cheers James
