Maybe we should try driving to Spain in one ... can u imagine gabys' reaction 😅
That's would be a fantastic vlog 'Tim & Gaby in their Campavan in Spain!'
Indeed, I can imagine Gaby's reaction!
Do it, do it, do it lol That would be a great episode to watch 👍
Yh
I think Spain might be a little far for Gaby. Looking at the Tesco it looks like Caister so Spain maybe a little too far lol…
Never fails to delight this viewer how genuinely lovely Tim and Gaby are.
What I love about your videos Tim is your ability to make the viewer feel like there part of your family and on holiday with you.
Thanks 👍
100%
They’re.😊
It was Keuth Floyd,who drank red wine whist .cooking
Mum & dad have just got back home after 2 months touring in their motor home (short trip by their standards). When they retired, they bought one & spent a lot of time touring Europe from the most northern to the most southern, also Iceland & the Faroe Islands. They haven’t done as much since Covid so this trip was just Scottish highlands, Orkney etc which they have fallen in love with. They’re living the dream!
Good 4 them.
Your little boy is so lovely.
He is always smiling and so happy.❤
Haha your looks to camera when Gabys talking is hilarious!!!
❤ As you say... if your baby was a little older... I remember my childhood holiday in a Caravan in Norfolk... the excitement of leaving Birmingham England for the first time... with my sister and running into the North Sea ...... I was 11 years old and my sister was 13 years old...the joyous Seventies ❤
Love the editing when Gaby was talking in the shower. Well done tim 😂
Thank you!! 😁
I’ve never seen Tim so happy 😂 Gaby is right about boys and their toys
Even the baby goes immediately to the control buttons. 😂😂😂 hilarious!
You’re one of the best presenters around Tim, you’re a natural. ❤
My hubby and I own a 1997 Peugeot Boxer Wayfinder motorhome. We have called her "The Old Girl." We have had her for 5 years now and we love motorhoming.
Casper is the most cheerful contented baby I have ever seen. He seems to love every adventure. Loved the film but would really like to see you using the motorhome for a full week. Very interested in trying the camper experience.
You are so kind
It was Keith Floyd who was always sloshed on red during his cookery programmes lol
Yes lol
I loved him! He was only on a few times here in the US, and he'd been long since passed away.
I'm serving in a UK police force.
As for your "drink drive" question.
There is an offence of "drunk in charge of a motor vehicle", which is typically used for a drunk person who falls asleep in their car, it used to be a case of if they had the keys on their person, they were deemed "in charge" of the vehicle and if it could be proven they were intoxicated (roadside breathalyser and evidential one at a custody suite) there was an offence.
This is technically still the case but nowadays it's more about there being a way to prove that you had the intent to drive the vehicle whilst intoxicated, it's not usually enough to state that you were simply intoxicated whilst in a motor vehicle to which the keys were also inside the vehicle. This is likely to especially be the case when the vehicle in question is also a motorhome, for which of course one might sleep in and especially more so than a car.
Generally speaking it's not an issue, just don't get drunk and fall asleep in the driver's seat!
On another note - there was also an argument about whether a person who breaks into a motor home commits a "theft" or a "burglary" (burglary being theft from a dwelling).
The general consensus here is that if the motorhome or caravan is not being lived in at the time (parked up on someone's drive, parked in the rear garden) then it's a theft if someone breaks into it and steals from it. If however the motorhome/caravan is being lived in at the time (thus being used as a "Dwelling") then it becomes a burglary if someone breaks into it and steals from it.
safest option - do not risk it. Stay sober if inside the van
Best advice. @@marcus.H
Fun at parties this one
@@mrjagriff Do you condone drink driving?
Pretty selfish if you ask me. He asked a question to his audience, and got an answer!
No, officer, I do not drink and drive. I pull off the road first.
Windy ?? If the caravan rocking don’t come knocking !
😂😂😂
one thing I love is the many camera angles you give us. I can tell this takes a lot of effort. Just know they're appreciated!
FROM UNDERNEATH THE CAMPER TRUCK WAS REALLY INTERESTING!
💯 appreciated!
BROWNING MY MINCE OFF 😂😂😂😂😂Gotta love Gaby !I must say it is really good, and the bedroom is awesome !I can't believe how much room u have, and they have really well equipped the van hope u had a lovely couple of days !❤
Lol
Such fun to watch this. Think the look on Gaby's face told a thousand stories! Friends have bought an old van and done it up themselves to travel around in. They're off every weekend in it and love the freedom. I love the diversity of what you do Tim...never know where you will go or what you will do next and you certainly can't go wrong with a spagbol can you🍝😄?! Cook with me Tim! 😁Great videos. x J x
Lol no more cooking 🤣
She's brilliant , great humour they are well suited.
Gabys knowledge on the greatest British sitcoms is second to none
That Inbetweeners episode was just class 🙂
I think it’s because you just stayed in a generic field it wasn’t the best. You can take them anywhere ! Glen Coe in one of these is a different world. Motor homing is literally endless possibilities.
Who needs Greece or the Maldives when you got a camper in the UK 😎 💪
Well……
“You couldn’t do any hanky panky up here” 😂😂
Best line of the whole video haha
😁
Gaby's face was priceless. Hell will freeze over before you get her in a campervan again I think
Loved the Vlog. Gabys reaction was brilliant . You do a wonderful pitch of how good it is to Gaby and she really does get in the spirit of trying the experience, very positively. As usual very entertaining, informative, useful and down to earth. Well Done again Tim and Gaby.
Thank you so much!!
I think I'm with you Tim because I love driving around exploring new places and being able to stay somewhere unplanned. I used to go on travel holidays with my Dad and he would never book anywhere in advance, so we never knew where we were going to end up each day, it was a great adventure.
I think that a tourer caravan is a better option for most people because most of these campervans cost well over £60,000, whereas you can get a relatively new caravan and a tow car for that price. Also, with a caravan, you can still go places with your car once you've reached the camp site. Towing a caravan can be the reason why people choose campers though, not for the faint hearted at times.
We looked at buying one (love the hol's) but hired instead regularly from a terrific firm. No maintenance, storage, depreciation etc and it's clean and ready to go when you are.
We sold our last caravan, last year after camping for nearly 40 years, it was so much fun watching you and brought back memories, do I miss it, sometimes, we did have loads of great weekends our son came with us from a new born and we even got to take our grandson on a trip it’s great being out in the fresh air.
Us too,!❤
Disappointed you didn't mention how many people you could fit in the shower Tim. 😂😂
What a fun episode! Thank you, all 3 of you, we loved every moment 🥰
Our pleasure!
A camper is ok for a weekend but GREAT for touring holidays, where they excel. I drove from the chunnel down to Alicante and back and explored all the places on the way over 3 weeks.
Well done Tim, thank you for taking us wiv you loved it outstanding 👏👏
I used to LOVE trailer camping. I purchased an excellent condition, used 31 foot Airstream for $10,000, and sold it 10 years later, for $10,000. Great way to spend the summer. And....I installed a bidet.
Loved this, I would love to try it a weekend.
Nice vlog Tim and indeed motorhome. I had mine from 1997 until I sold it six years later. I do miss it and the freedom you got with one was amazing. It’s a real little community and motorhome drivers always acknowledge each other on the motorway or main road. I often used to take my to Scotland or The Lake District where I’d camp for days on end. Looks like Thumps was really enjoying it not so with Gaby maybe!
Yep when caspers older just father and son then lol
There's a whole new TH-cam channel right there! @@WalkWithMeTim
You are one happy camper! I'm happy to see you so excited.
So respectful and polite to each other. Beautiful new and clean motorhome. Lots of fun.
The one thing I really like about motorhomes is being able to pack up and move around if you don't like a certain area or site
Tim & family your video's are really helpful especially for families with a young child
Keep up the excellent work and it's so good to see your channel growing, 216k subs 🙂💙🍻
Love the videos with Gabby!! Her reaction was priceless. Little Casper looked excited at least!! Hope you had a fab time guys 😊
Thanks so much! 😊
Lol . So cute watching the little one at the control panel . He'll be driving soon 😁. Lovely family.🌷
Great, looks good fun and all mod cons. Thanks for posting.
Awesome you two!!!! My wife and I loved our RV days, the adventures and memories are priceless!! Have fun and be safe and enjoy every minute!!! We love you guys, God bless. 🙏🏾❤️👏🏾😂🙏🏾
Thanks Daniel
Loved that camper van! I’d love to hire one. Shame Gaby wasn’t so keen but I’m glad she tried it. I loved seeing Caspers face laughing when he was running around 😊
When you said the van was rocking from the wind I was thinking “when the vans rocking don’t come knocking” 😂
ha it was ;-)
I can't think of anything better!! Being able to go wherever you want and watch the sunset before you listen to rain pitter-patter on the roof awesome 👌
Hi guys! Really enjoying your videos. Casper is a sheer delight. When I see him smile, I light up!
Absolutely loved this, something me and jason want to do when the kids move out. Only thing we need to check is finding a wheelchair friendly one. Will be in hemsby from the 26th of August for a week. Be great to see you all. Keep up the good work xxx
Your videos have always been high quality. You've become quite a master of your craft as lately with this and the Greek vlogs you raised your own bar. Keep up the great work.
Wow, thank you!
Two things-
First, Gabby sounded like she was feeling that 🍷 when Tim comically said to Gabby: “How much have you had to drink?” And, gabby quickly responded with “About 2 sipsss” Lol you can just hear it in her voice. I started laughing.
Second, Gabby doesn’t
realize 95% of us would love to travel in a RV around the world or to different places. Are you kidding? Lots of people don’t have the luxury to do so. Gabby needs to look at the bigger picture and not take this for granted-most of us would love to travel in an RV just once in a while.
We still love ya Gab even if you get a little too, turned up off those beverages! Great video as always! Keep it up guys! 🙌
Beautiful motor home Tim, the look on Gaby's face was priceless. Nice to see Casper too.
I think it’s great but so expensive.thanks for sharing it with us ❤️
Such an interesting, enjoyable video . Tim you're content just keeps getting even better . Wonderful channel and i love Gaby's channel too ❤
Thanks so much!
Gaby has a channel ?
OMG Gaby’s face was priceless. I love it when Gaby & Thumps are in the vlogs she is quality @ always says it how it is! Loved your vlog.
Looks like lots of fun, Bless the baby and Hello from CANADA. 👍👍👍.
Hi tim, gaby and casper. I'm subscribed and always like your brilliant videos Tim, I've not done motor homes but i can see their appeal to some though very expensive. I really enjoyed seeing how casper is coming along and his smiles warmed my heart.
Cheers graham
Glad you like them!
Great vlog Tim it was brilliant, Gabys face said it all when she saw it 😊, I would definitely rent one they look amazing Tim xx
Thanks so much! 😊
Hi Tim I have had a motorhome for two years and love it. Takes a few trips to sort and understand it and sort yourself out but it is really peaceful and enjoyable. Great video as always👍
Great video as usual. That looks really cosy the motor home and definitely something I wouldn’t mind doing
🤣🤣🤣🤣 The look on Tim's face when Gabby was talking about the shower !
Priceless 😂😂
That was just so much fun to watch! 😆I've never tried a motorhome but I have always wanted to and there was nothing in your video to put me off, in fact I reckon you would make an awesome motorhome salesman Tim! Shame that Gaby wasn't too keen, maybe one day, in many years to come when Casper is all grown up, she might like the idea better. Looks like you need deep pockets though, that was pricey. Top video Tim, thank you 😊
Glad you enjoyed it! Yes I won't pay that again
Starting watching your videos by chance however I'm addicted now grateful content great banter snd reviews are great no gimmicks just beautiful people showing the masses their travels much love from London ❤❤l
Thanks Tim great video always wanted to do a motorhome very nice and compact little late watching this husband was in hospital but back home thanks again to you three look forward to the next Yvonne 😊
I think this is the most animated I’ve ever seen Tim! Like a kid at Christmas 😄 I totally get it tho, I love caravan holidays for the same reason, the childhood nostalgia
Also I cracked up at the glances at the camera whilst Gaby was sped through 😂😂
And thumps is so stinkin cute!
I’m sure he has his moments but he seems like such a happy smiley child 🥰
That part had me cracking up too! 😄
Tim was so happy and excited!
I know and for what .. to caravan on my own lol
I don’t think Tim realised that there was an extra side place that clicks into place to put the dishes love the video
Enjoyed the video ..I get where Gabby is coming from because with a little one you feel hemmed in and still have to clean up and all of that stuff not like a hotel or anything ..but when Casper is older or maybe later in life I can see you might get your way Tim , especially perched on a hill on a hill overlooking a fabulous beach in the med xx😊
Brilliant video Tim Gabby and Casper. My daughter has one of these vans and they travel all over the UK. They love it.
Bless Gaby's reaction to the camper van - she gave it a try and can see she got into the spirit of it. Looks ok, but seemed a bit fiddly and cramped toilet shower. I can see you Tim enjoying adventures in it with Casper! Def a boys and their toys type thing. Camping's great fun though, esp with mates. I totally dig that community vibe of a camp site. Can't beat sitting round a fire and sharing stories. Something to look forward to when Casper's a bit bigger. 😊
So true!
Great video as usual Tim. My theory on whether you like camping/caravaning as an adult depends if you went as a child. If you have great memories of camping as a child, this stays with you and you are more likely to go as an adult. Children love the adventure and the freedom of camping and the atmosphere of the camp site. Unfortunately, as we get older, we prefer the home comforts more and become more picky/critical. I have tried to get my wife to like camping to no avail! I said to her that when I retire, I would love to get a camper van and just tour! Her reply? I am sure that you will come back to visit me every so often!
Lift the wood up next to the sink for putting washed pots on a tea towell on or extra prep area
Love Casper's laugh and smile, adorable boy 🥰 brilliant video 🙌
I was one of those who hadn’t subscribed until now!
Well done Tim,I really loved this episode and having Gaby and beautiful smiling Thumper made it even better! God bless! ❤
Thanks means a lot
Thanks kitty
Hi Tim and Gabby and Casper as well!, I really enjoyed the video, wish it could've gone on a bit longer, because I was so interested by the motorhome and which campsite you were going to stay at and just watching the three of you living in it!. I thought the motorhome was massive and there was so much room and it had everything you would need for a weeks holiday or longer!, I would definitely stay in it and would love to travel round Britain's coastline. Just travelling from place to place, visiting museums, castles and any other attractions, you could go to Devon and go to dartmoor moors and just pitch up in any of the carparks for the day/night. There's miles and miles of dartmoor to explore!, they're are so many places you could go in motorhome and lots to explore!, I can understand Gabby might not fancy it, some people don't like caravaning or camping in tents, it's not for everyone!. I on the other hand am a big fan of it and the motorhome you were renting was probably a luxury one, because I've seen smaller ones which I would hope are cheaper to rent out!.I would have to persuade my other half because he would be doing the driving and he doesn't think it's that easy to do. Maybe in the future you could persuade Gabby again to travel in motorhome, maybe when Casper is older and not into everything, I enjoyed this video and hope you make more of them Tim 😊
Thanks yes it was a bit more high end hence the price but I knew I had to to get gabys approval.. that didn't work lol
I think motor homes are amazing i love them. And the thought of touring sounds fantastic. Your carrying your home with you where ever you go. Love it 😀 love your videos too.
I have many wonderful memories of camping in our trailer home with 2 children. A great way to get away & enjoy the outdoors . Think positive thoughts Gabby & try it again in a more rustic environment with trails to explore and a campfire at night.
I agree with Gaby, it can be quite stressful driving around, emptying the toilet, ensuring you turn the gas off etc. I like the idea and it seems cool but I’ll stick to hotels just now.
Loved the episode. Actually own a motorhome and love going away with my partner at short notice. Half the time we don’t even know where we’re going to end up. That’s the beauty of touring. We park up and use electric bikes to explore. Mind you, I’m with Gabby…our washroom is the full width of the van so much more user friendly! Keep up the good work. Love your vids
Love that!
FULL OF LUXURY @ I ENJOY
ALL YOUR VIDEOS..THANKS
Very nice motor home. They are popular with retired folks. I think they're great, good fun .
I'm with gaby on this one. You can get a really nice hotel for £300 per night. And you don't have any work to do. No washing up, no need to clean the van, empty the toilet, fill up the water etc.
I want to relax on holiday. Not work.
More santorini and dubai style videos please.
Fair enough!
Another great watch! I thoroughly enjoyed this and Gabby without a doubt always has me laughing, she’s so comical! And loved her reference to British sitcoms! Me and my boyfriend would love to go round in one of these! Tim couldn’t smile wide enough 😀 and Casper is such a sweetie! Love to you all x
thanks Aimee
Tim, I must say I love the perspective this video provides with you, Gabby and the baby. I almost wish all of your videos were a family perspective (and I don’t even have kids but I go on a lot of family holidays)! This video was fantastic and realistic, thank you!
Thanks Tim , good to see something different, after being Ill, on impulse we bought a caravan, it was brilliant, we toured all over the country, after watching the Northerners on Tour videos, I think the way forward if we were younger would be to by a motor home and explore Europe parking up wherever the wim takes us. Parking up on the side of the road or in beauty spots can be very cheap. A little surprised at the hire costs for two days. I bet your son fully enjoyed his adventure.
Looks Amazing Tim , I have done this sort of thing in a VW way back in the 70's around the Med and I still live those days in my head ... Things were much cheaper then and very affordable ... But £600 for 2 days wow Im with Gabby on that point ...way too expensive . Buy an old van and kit it out for when Casper gets older you wont regret it and Im sure Gaby will learn to love the freedom of it ....Made me laugh when you fast forwarded Gaby talking ..your face was a picture 😂..great video Tim , I love all of you ..❤
Tbh it's high season aug
I have often wondered what it would be like but I agree, at that price you could book really nice holiday cottages and the only thing you miss out on is the flexibility of moving around. I think I will stick to cottages but I can see that if you OWNED one it could be quite nice to bomb off for the weekend every so often.
Oh I loved this!!! Tim, sounds like if you keep Gaby a bit tipsy, she'll happily go along for another trip! She Did say that the more she drank, the more she liked it. 😉😊👨👩👦🍷🍷
Lol
I used to love caravaning when I was younger with my mum and dad in our tourer. A sense of freedom.
I love how honest Gaby is. I can relate. I am not a camper either, but the video was great and informative.
Nice work Tim! Sorry you couldn’t quite convince Gaby. I’m already a convert, spent 2 weeks exploring Tasmania in a similar camper and loved it… Appreciate all the work you go to for b roll footage 👍
I know its lost on some people I already damaged one go pro rideing over the top of it lol
Done very well.. love the diversity of you videos. You always entertain me.. you look great as always.. and you and gaby are so cute with Casper!
Your devoted fan from America
Thank you so much!!
Good show. I did this 7 years ago and I now live in one :) I wild camp all the time but I have a generator if I need electric which is built in. Mine is a 9 speed auto too - lovely to drive and so good on fuel.
Absolutely love caravanning, even when I was like 2 years old I was introduced to it. We had a tourer. Went all over the UK. Seen so many places met so many people and friends. It’s perfect for families.
I love it! You spoilt Gaby with a motorhome that size! It’s my dream to have one and travel the uk - maybe a smaller one to get round our lanes easier 😄
Go for it!
Casper is always happy!
Gabby is such a great sport! She’s very open to having a change of plans. I don’t deal well with surprises. I’ve got to be able to consider things & think about them first. I love to see people who can deal with things on the spot - like Gabby did.
We have had motorhomes for more than 20 years now and absolutely love it. We have a good solar array so can do wild camping as well as site camping.
One thing we have learned though is that we would be very reluctant to park so close to the chemical toilet disposal and waste area, as you have because we have often found it can be extremely smelly 💩 💩🤢. Not all sites but many, of them are, especially if the disposal point is actually indoors !!
(One in North Walsham in Norfolk was so bad, it made everyone gag who went in there. Site owners insisted the door was kept shut which let the smell build up so bad - yuck)
Go on Tim, buy yourself one! I think you'd love it!
Lol they cost more than our house lol
This Campavan was certainly more luxurious than I thought it was going to be!
Very plush Seats & I loved the way the driving seats turn around to make a dining area!
Obviously no room for a sofa but fairly comfortable.
The upper bed when Gaby got up there she did look comfortable on it & the little window looking out!
Everything was in there wasn't it!
I liked how everything was provided you didn't need to take anything with you.
The Toilet looked ok & the Tap/Shower Transformer was amazing 🤩 really didn't expect that!
The Gas & Electric looked easy to use.
For me personally I feel the same way as Gaby maybe one or 2 nights away or maybe one longer holiday in a Campavan might be ok, you've swayed me Tim because before I didn't like the thought of staying in a Campavan at all!
Just with me being abit of a more rounded person than you or Gaby I can imagine i would end up with bruises with bashing my Hips against the sideboard or catching my Bum on something 😂
I'd have to manoeuvre myself carefully!
But all in all a very interesting & fun vlog!
I hope you & Gaby do go away for a Campavan Holiday again🤩😊.
Some are much nicer than this
@@WalkWithMeTim I'd love to see you in an even more luxurious Campavan Tim!!🤩
Keith Floyd was the chef who liked a drop of wine. LLoyd Grosman was the American guy who started Masterchef
You and the family are naturals. Nice!
At £600, you can get a larger caravan on a holiday park with more amenities probably at peak season for that money. For only two days use it doesn't represent good value for money either, plus there is the added problem that if you want to go and visit a place like a tourist site, you literally end up having to take your holiday home with you everywhere.
And they can be a pain to park in some places too.
There are those who choose van-life and live in them all year round, but for two days, you're better off in a chalet or caravan.
600 Quid !!!
It does look good not like the caravan in Father Ted 😁
Just discovered you Tim yesterday and now I’ve watched three. Fun and interesting, love G and Baby Casper. Quite an adventure with a baby. More adventures as Casper gets older. Nice channel.
Gaby was a star Tim, and your littlen looked liked he was having a lovely time!! Maybe come back to this "hire a motorhome" idea again in a few years.
It was a fun video to watch, very well edited and light hearted. Your bolognaise made me feel hungry! 😂
All the best

Ha thanks Harvey
