Yes I am humming the Britney Speares song whilst typing this and now it's stuck In my head! Last weekend on a raining Sunday morning we decided perhaps we would visit the NEC caravan show, both saying no new caravan; well we made it to last 90min of the show and popped back the Grantham Caravans swift stand to order a new Kampa air awning, and ended up ordering a 2017 Swift Siena Accent 580 which is their dealer special edition based on the Swift Challeger. So now we are very excitingly awaiting for it to be delivered in March next year with some good luck and swift working those caravan elves overtime and will be saying fairwell to our 2013 Bailey Unicorn Cadiz that has served us well the last 4 years also purchased after just going for a look!

My Hubby put his foot down with a firm hand and even took my car keys with him on the Sunday, as I wanted to go to the show and he knew it would end up being an expensive affair
March wont come soon enough

I'm just hoping Swift don't move the delivery date as they first said July until we said we would bother then after the dealer spoke to them it was moved to March so wonder if Grantham have some build slots already reserved. Now like a kid waiting for santa! But we did get a really good deal on the awning we went for and the new caravan as it was last hour on the last day of the show and they were chasing targets 😀

Seems crazy ordering a 2017 caravan and it only gets delivered in June or July just in time for the 2018 season to be launched. Many people were disppointed this year when their caravans were not ready for delviery until a much later date!

We did a similar thing at the show at the start of the year, went along for a day out, accidentally purchased a Buccaner Cutter.
