One of the best reviews on TH-cam for the caravan show at the nec hope to see you at October show with your views on the new caravans thanks
Hi Michael, thank you so much! That means a lot as this was a very different video to make. I'll definitely be there in October, so look forward to seeing you!
Thanks again and all the best
Mac
Thank you so much Mac, Sarah & Dozer for featuring our dog drying bag, it was so lovely to meet you, really appreciate you sharing the drying bag with your followers, it really is a must for anyone with a dog and a caravan 🙂
Hey Anna! Oh it's our pleasure! We used it yesterday with Dozer after a very rainy walk and it worked a treat! Can't wait to share it in action in future videos 😀
All the best
Mac, Sarah & Dozer
@@MacSarah Amazing!! they really are a gamechanger aren't they, can't wait to see more - loving the videos 🙂
Hi mac liked the video especially about the tents and bags for pooches what a good idea hope dozer is ok
Thanks Sally. They're nifty aren't they? Great way to spoil youre pooch. Yes Dozer's doing great thanks 👍 Hope you're well
All the best
Yes they are nifty and just found both websites the bags are not to badly priced but the tents £100 so not sure about that as my pooch might not use it
Just a thought. If you buy a TV with a built in WiFi receiver, you can use your phone as a WiFi HotSpot, and connect your TV to t'internet that way. Alternatively, if you have a ChromeCast, you can stream content from your phone to the TV via the ChromeCast dongle.
Not sure how much they charge for the WiFi kit, but it may not be an entirely necessary purchase.
Hi, thanks for watching and leaving us a comment! Those are some great tips, especially the Chromecast as we do have one!! Will check it out.
All the best, Mac & Sarah
I love the outdoor movie set up.
Isn't that cool? Such a great idea
Thanks for watching
Another great video. The Bradcot awning is interesting and seems very flexible. The Colapz product looks good and reduces some of the size and weight.
All the best
Martin
Hi Martin, thanks for watching 👍. Yes the Bradcot awning was really interesting, very versatile. Not cheap, but I reckon if someone is in the market for a new awning, definitely one to consider.
All the best
Mac
Hi Mac, what an amazing video and exactly the best content to watch if you have dogs and own a caravan. Keep up the great videos. Thank you
Thanks very much Luco! Dogs and caravans go together so well so it was great to find things tailored to dog owners.
Thanks for watching 👍
Thank you Mac for this very good review about the nec.👍
My pleasure, thanks for watching 👍
Ordered two of those Stretch seats, just the ticket for us. Regards to Dozer 😁
Ah that's great Alex, they're nifty aren't they? Dozer says hi 🙂 Thanks for watching 👍
Great vlog guys surprised we didn’t see you around .
Loved the accessories etc you found .
Ah thanks very much! Hopefully next time 😀 thanks for watching
Best review of all the little bits of stuff we all love ,
Thanks very much Barry!! Much appreciated
I do like those seats
Nifty huh? So many uses!
Brilliant reviews Mac & really helpful too. I think I will be purchasing some of those products!
Hi John! Oh that's great, so glad it was helpful. Thanks for watching 👍
All the best
Mac
Wow, great video Mac. Loved the Total Cool. I think we may invest in one of those, as when we stayed at the pop up site at Goodwood for the Goodwood Revival in September last year, the caravan was incredibly hot and the fridge was struggling to maintain its low temperature. We’ll recommend that friends of ours also watch your video as they are in the market for a new awning, and the Bradcot modular one looks really amazing. Hope Sarah and Dozer had a nice relax at home too. 👍🤗 Amanda and Paul.
Hey Amanda and Paul! Thanks for watching 🙏 ah that's kind of you to recommend the video to your friends!! The Bradcot Awning is seriously impressive and well worth a look.
Thanks again and all the best
Mac & Sarah
Avoid the Total Cool. It works by evaporation, so the air coming out is high humidity and will saturate the air in the van and as soon as it is saturated it will no longer have any cooling effect.
Brilliant video , best we have seen from the show and some really interesting products, you are a natural!
I want the dog tepee now 😂xx
Thanks so much Vicki, I really appreciate that! Oh they're so cute aren't they? ❤️
Thanks so so much for watching!
All the best
Mac & Sarah
Hi Mac, this is without a shadow of doubt the best review of the show, well done. Can’t wait to see what you bought!
Cheers, Mike
Hi Mike! Thanks very much indeed, that means a lot, I'm so glad you enjoyed it. It was quite a departure from our normal stuff but so glad I did it. Filming the haul video this week so should be out at the weekend.
Thanks again, all the best 👍
Brilliant vlog , a change from all the other you tubers who seem to be just focusing on Motorhomes or Campervan .We have a caravan and have a dog , it was really interesting to see the accessories that are available .Looking forward to seeing what you bought and following your adventures in your new van Thanks Gillian, Ian and Milllie the dog x
Thanks so much Gillian and Ian! I really wanted to focus on accessories as that's also what I needed 😂 glad you found it interesting. There are so many cool products to make touring with a dog easier.
Thanks for watching! Love and boops to Millie ❤️
Thanks Mac I am disappointed I didn't go now. Xx stay safe xx
Ah there's always October 😀 thanks for watching, all the best
Thanks for the excellent video - I enjoy going to the show and the only thing I’m looking at is accessories. Too many TH-camrs focus on the vans and ignore the accessories. I was due to go this year but work meant I missed it - your video means I didn’t completely miss out.
Hi, thank you so much! That's exactly what I thought too! Lots of people cover the caravans, probably better than I could too, so I really wanted to focus on accessories, so glad it was useful.
Thanks very much for watching and leaving a comment 👍
All the best
Mac
Hi Mac, great vlog, so nice to see a video covering items that others don’t, well done. Loved the dog bag so will be ordering one today for Hamish. Also thought the air con unit was a brilliant idea. Shame not to see Sarah. Going to the show in October and may bump into you both then. All the best Ken and Lee (and Hamish)
Hi Ken, thanks for watching, glad you liked the different angle too. Aw the doggy drying bag will be great for Hamish, we used it with Dozer yesterday and it worked out great 👍
Yes definitely plan to be there in October, so hope to see you then 🙂
All the best
Mac & Sarah
Thank you so much for your order, hope you are loving the drying bag 🙂
Hi Mac, Dan Trudgian put us in touch with your channel.
Think we,ve caught up with all of them now !
Great video this time, hope you do more soon....well done, love to Dozer.
Hi Leslie! Ah that's lovely of Dan, thanks for stopping by and watching our content! We really appreciate it 👍
All the very best
Mac, Sarah & Dozer
Great video Mac. Lots of interesting stuff to look at on line. We did go to the show on the Saturday but unfortunately I found it much too busy and overwhelming for me. X
Thanks Jackie! I was there on Tuesday and Wednesday and it was pretty quiet, I can imagine it's a bit much when it's packed.
Thanks for watching
Portable seat absolutely brilliant
It's really great, so handy 👍
Did you see the total cool fridge freezer Mac! It’s amazing! I think it was on a different stand to the one you visited.. they had 2 stands! I highly recommend the fridge freezer
Hi Janet! I saw that they had another stand but didn't get to see the fridge freezer, good to know you recommend it though. Thanks for watching 👍
Very good
Thanks for watching Brian, much appreciated 👍
great Vvlogs guys
Thanks so much Lyn
We went on the Wednesday to buy accessories and an awning. We never did find the accessories section 😂. We did manage to get what we wanted though.
Ah so glad you managed to find what you were after. Thanks for watching 👍
Acording to Wemax 400 ANSI lumens is only capable of 80"-100" in a dark room it would need to be about 1500 to get a 150"-200" viewing area in an ambient-lit room.
The stretch seats are awesome, I have had about 4 of them for a couple of years (a different brand tho I think), not too heavy and real easy to use, perfect to take on a walk.
The mozzy killers are good, I use one when I go overnight fishing, leave it outside the tent/van and they get attracted to the light rather than go inside.
We can't wait to start using the stretch seats, I bought a couple. They seem so handy. I really should have picked up some of the mosquito lights, they eat le alive usually lol
Thanks for watching 👍
Just catching up on our backlog and we seem to have been to all the same stalls at the NEC 😀
Oh haha there was some great stuff to look at wasn't there? Really enjoyed my visit 👍
@@MacSarah yea, we go to them all now. Fun to browse and great to meet up with other Vloggers and viewers
Like the idea of the cooler , can use it in the house aswell , didn't do the show this time , may go later in the year , easy for us as only 20 mins down the road , thanks for the insight
Hi David, thanks for watching 👍 Yes the cooler was brilliant actually, we're definitely going to buy one, absolutely ideal for the van but as you say, even at home too.
Cheers, Mac & Sarah
Waste money don’t work
@@Terry-sx7biyou need to explain more..........
@@leebryantravels Poor value for money. Sold with a lot of hype at shows but it doesn’t live up to it. It’s not very effective unless you are sat in front of it then it’s very average. You can get similar units that blow air over water for a fraction of the cost. Try those and waste £40 not £250
Was in qué and some train spotters shouted get a life 😅
That seems a bit mean of them 😂
Got 1 them mosquito lights brilliant. Also waste pipes although 1 pipe came damaged company didn't just send 1 replacement pipe. Sent complete new set .really good company to deal with. Only had send photos of damaged part.only used few times interested to see how long last folding up down etc
Hi Dean! Glad to hear the mosquito lights work well. So good to hear that Collapz gave good customer service too, that's so important! Thanks for watching 👍
Nice review - we already have the stretch seats, and at the recent show I bought a Fire Safety Stick (th-cam.com/video/wpNHOkorWjI/w-d-xo.htmlsi=swYm3phPkOSkHEIi) as it's very versatile, extremely light , has no maintenance needs and a 15 yr lifespan. The Bradcot awning is a clever idea - particularly the modular set up and the neat sliding ability for the pegs.
Say hi to Sarah and give Dozer a hug from us.
Take care
Steve n Jeanette
Hi Steve! Oh that sounds great, I'll have a look at that. Yea the Bradcot awning is so versatile and bonis being made in the UK too.
Thanks so much, all the best to you both
Mac, Sarah & Dozer
Hi guys - really loving your channel and the new caravan - you've got us thinking about swapping to one! Im after a bit of advice if you can help? Im always impressed with your channel because whenever I hover over a thumbnail to one of your videso the section or clip it plays is never "random". I've tried finding out how to do this with our vidoes but with no success. Could you point me in the right direction please or is it just randomly selected by youtube at upload and there's little that can be done? Thankyou in advance 😁
Hey there!!! Thanks so much, we really appreciate your support!!
Wow that's a good question, but it must be something TH-cam does automatically as we've never come across a way of specifying it. Thanks again for watching and getting in touch, we'll head over and check out your channel too 🙂👍
regarding the pooch and paws teepee id love one but every bed or tent weve ever bought he constantly pees on it for some reason
Aww boo, that's such a shame. Thanks so much for watching 🙏
Anyone ever told you that you look like Keir Starmer? 😂
Don't you start! 😂 It's been mentioned by someone else too, I just don't see it 😂
Canceled mine last year at think they are ripping people off .. we have said NO and until they have realistic prices they won't get a visit from us.😮
Fair enough, let's hope they make some changes. Thanks for watching
can park overnight in tesco?
Don't know to be honest, but I doubt it
Total cools are just too expensive. It’s basically a fan, a sponge and a water reservoir in a plastic case. Warm air in = warm air out. Total waste of money
Thanks for the feedback, good to get a balance of opinions. Thanks for watching, much appreciated 👍
Hi Mac n Sarah, just subscribed to you ,great vlogs ,enjoying them all ,please could you mention the price per night for the sights you visit ,would appreciate it ,thanks and enjoy the new van 😊
Hi Mike, thanks for watching and subscribing, we really appreciate it 👍 That's great feedback, yes we will do in future!
All the best
Mac & Sarah
Very good, but you seem to want to show us the person more than the product
Thanks for the feedback. It's the first video of this kind we've made so feedback helps.
Dvd player and checkbook? What year are you travelling from? 2001? ….
Haha no!!! 1995 😝
We have been to the NEC for the past two years and found this years show very disappointing. If you’re in the market for a motor home you were covered, but like us we are not interested in motor homes only caravans and we found the show 90% motor homes and 10% caravans. We have just bought a swift caravan, and they were not at the show.
I totally agree that it felt more motorhome heavy, and disappointed not to see Swift there. But I had fun looking at the accessories anyway.
Thanks for watching 🙏
instead of total cool there should be displays of total hot with less energy...have u seen any real?
That would be a good idea, haven't seen anything though
