Hi,

I've posted here a few times recently as we bought our first van a few weeks back. having never towed etc, it was all a little new.

Just back from a local first weekend away in it. Got hitched up, didn't hit anything, got fully setup and had a great couple of days, got packed up and home again safely.

Just wanted to say thanks to everybody who has helped me over the last few weeks.

Sure there are more questions coming but wanted to keep you posted!!

Thx
Ian

Glad it all went well. Its one of the strengths of forums in that it can provide a lot of quick answers. It won't be long before you are advising others

I have to agree with Ian, THis last weekend was also my first trip out with the caravan (we have been caravaning before as children) and the trip was stress free, and really pleasant.

And mainly due to advice found on here, either where I asked or where someone else asked the same question.

All advice given on here, as David says, is quick. But it is also polite and not patronising.
